The Plymouth Farmers’ Market is a truly local market; we offer products that are grown or made in Massachusetts with locally sourced ingredients with emphasis on specialties from the South Coast area. Ours is one of the best attended farmers' market south of Boston. People arrive looking for good food, exceptional value and performances by local musicians who make your heart sing as you shop. The Plymouth Farmers’ Market gives priority to farmers and agricultural products but also includes handmade and homemade creations. Our wonderful vendors contribute to the friendly climate of the market through appealing display, effective labeling and clear signage, cheerful and welcoming interactions, and generally pitching in to make this market successful. Our market members' commitment to raising sustainable foods in our region are admirable and now may be enjoyed in each season.
