Description
Please note: The Backyard Growcery now closes at 5:30pm through the end of the season, due to fading daylight hours.
Stop by Gloucester’s new weekly farmers market, the Backyard Growcery, managed by food equity non-profit organization Backyard Growers. The Backyard Growcery is located at Burnham’s Field, an urban park near Gloucester’s thriving waterfront, and features small-scale North Shore farmers, bakers, a seafood vendor, an artisanal pizza maker, and more, throughout the season.
The Backyard Growcery accepts SNAP, WIC, and Senior Coupons. Burnham’s Field is accessible via CATA bus. It is located near the Sheedy Park stop on the Gloucester Crossing & Business Express Loop.
Stay tuned for a calendar of free food-growing, gardening, and art workshops taking place at the Growcery that are designed to bring our community together. The Backyard Growcery also features a Community Resources area where visitors can access essential services and learn more about innovative nonprofit organizations making an impact on Cape Ann.
