The indoor Berkshire Grown Williamstown/North Adams Winter Farmers Market took place at Greylock WORKS. The Winter Farmers Markets host farmers and producers from Berkshire County and the surrounding region. Vendors offered an abundance of locally-grown food, including fresh greens, winter squash, root crops, apples, meats, cheeses, honey and maple syrup, baked goods, and more.
This year we are partnered with host Greylock WORKS to offer a mini maker market within the Winter Farmers Market, featuring a carefully curated gathering of local artisans. Shoppers met the local farmers, artisans and shopped for their goods while listening to the sounds of local musicians performing at the market.
Admission to the Winter Farmers Markets is free. Food access is an integral part of the markets. Shoppers using SNAP received a match up to $30, and the HIP incentive reimbursed shoppers who spend SNAP funds on fresh fruits and vegetables. SNAP and HIP were processed at the market manager’s station, as well as at several farmers’ booths.
