Farmers markets like Chatham Farmer's Market represent a fundamentally different way of accessing food compared to a supermarket. When you shop at Chatham Farmer's Market, the person selling you tomatoes is often the same person who planted them — a level of transparency and traceability that industrial food systems cannot replicate. That direct relationship is what draws many Chatham residents to the market week after week.

The selection at Chatham Farmer's Market changes as the growing season progresses. Early in the season, expect cool-weather crops like salad greens, radishes, and herbs. Peak summer brings the widest variety — tomatoes, peppers, corn, stone fruits, and squash. By fall, the market shifts toward storage vegetables, apples, pears, preserves, and baked goods that make use of seasonal harvests. This seasonal rhythm is something you feel at a farmers market in a way you never do in a grocery store.

Chatham Farmer's Market is committed to serving all members of the Chatham community. SNAP/EBT benefits are accepted, meaning nutrition assistance recipients can use their benefits to buy fresh, locally grown produce and other eligible items directly from vendors. These programs reflect a broader commitment to food access that many farmers market organizers across Massachusetts have prioritized in recent years.

By connecting Chatham residents with local producers, Chatham Farmer's Market supports a shorter, more transparent food supply chain that benefits both buyers and sellers.

Access to fresh food at Chatham Farmer's Market extends to SNAP/EBT recipients, who can use their benefits to shop directly from local farmers and producers.
