Lawrence Farmers Markets

The Lawrence Farmers Markets are held from July through October, every Wednesday on Appleton Way in Lawrence’s downtown Essex Street business district and Saturday at the Greater Lawrence Family's Health Center Park Street site. The markets feature a wide variety of local produce, as well as crafts. Since assuming management of the downtown market in 2006, Groundwork Lawrence has sought to increase access to the market for all shoppers by accepting SNAP (food stamps) and credit and debit cards and working to increase the redemption of WIC and Senior Farmers Market coupons. Today, the market provides a lively gathering place for the whole community with free attractions such as live entertainment, family activities and cultural and educational exhibits.
