Indoor/Outdoor markets- NOT FLEA MARKETS (Boston, Brimfield: food, farmers market, parking)

[NEOhioBound]

So, last year I found a website that mentioned it was an indoor/outdoor market with local produce, meats, some arts & crafts, but we had just missed it being opened for the season. I thought I booked marked the page, but apparently I didn't. For the life of me, I can not remember the name of the place or even the location-if in MA or RI. So, can you guys name some places that are similar? I checked out localharvest.com, FarmersMarket.com, semaponline.org, and eat local and still can't find the place.

They were celebrating a 4th or 5th season, I believe as well


Thank you for suggestions

Well there is the Brimfield fair
Brimfield Antique Show Homepage

That one is pretty big.

The problem is farmers markets have popped up like wildfire and other events can tend to piggyback with them so it is hard to say specifically where it is of what you saw. If there were fish there then I'd assume it would be coastal.

No, not antiques. It was more like a farmers market, and local vendors who cooked/baked with local food and local artists and crafts

SOWA comes to mind. Outside, they have the farmer's market, the open market (crafts and such), and lots of food trucks, and I believe there is an antiques market inside (or at least there was in the past). It's in the South End on Sundays. Here's the link: SoWa Open Market

Do you remember how you stumbled upon this website? Was it specific search for farmers markets? Any keywords? If you *think* you remember the keywords you were searching, try it again, and go throughly through results pages. Google changes how / where things come up (depending on advertisements, and how active websites are. I noticed several times that I search for something, and it's on the first or second page, then I search for it again in 2 months, and can't find it unless I skip to page 5 or so.
To summarize, maybe try to trace down your search again.
Sorry I cannot help further.

Not it, but that looks GREAT! Just wish Boston parking rates weren't so expensive or I would drive up for that

Yes, tikaram, I think I originally saw it off of a site like localharvest, but can no longer find it

Not a lot of information to go on. There are a ton of farmers markets many of them started in the last five years.

Meters are free on Sundays. There is parking in the area, visitor parking and also meters.

What?! I did not know that! Thank you!

I was thinking of SOWA too. It gets crowded early on, so if you're going to go, make sure to get into the area early enough to find a parking space
