aboutus

The Pittsfield Farmers Market was established in 2013 with the belief that everyone should have access to fresh and healthy food.

 

As a year-round, teen-run market, we strive to be more than a place to shop. With live music, chef demos, workshops and children's activities, we are a true community hub and a force for good.

The Pittsfield Farmers Market is a program of Roots Rising.

 

WeBelieve

We believe that everyone in our community should have access to fresh, healthy food. We believe that food is powerful. It's more than something we eat. Food transcends language and culture, age and religion, economics and ability. It fuels us, it heals us, and it is woven into the fabric of each of our lives. In this way, food connects us to each other.

 

But food also divides us. Not everyone has equal access to healthy, whole food. This is where the Pittsfield Farmers Market steps in. Through our food justice work, our aim is to level the playing field and to transform food into a tool to educate, to empower, and to build community.
