Who's Your Farmer?
Farmers markets are one of the easiest places to find the tasty harvests of Rhode Island farms. You'll find a diversity of foods fresh from the fields and meet the people who grow your meal. Plus, every dollar paid directly to a local grower is a dollar reinvested into Rhode Island communities. | SUNDAY | ||||
