After a couple of rainy markets, we’re gearing up for a hot and happy Tuesday Market this week! Don’t forget that it’s Tuesday if you had Monday off! Plan for a stroll around and stay for some excellent people watching. Stop by the purple market tent to check out the market map, buy tokens or grab a shopping bag.

Sage Meadow Farm will be bringing goat kids to Tuesday Market this week! Stop by to say hi to the goats and check out the nice variety of soaps that Sage Meadow has for sale at the market every other week.
Sage Meadow Farm wrapped up their 2018 Caprine Vinyasa (baby goat yoga) series this weekend. Not only a playful and fun way to practice yoga, the series raised $11,000 this year for the following local causes-Easthampton Farmers’ & Makers’ Market, Build Easthampton (new school ballot committee), Freedom For All Massachusetts (transgender rights), Dakin Humane Society and the Easthampton Community Center. What a huge accomplishment, congratulations!

HIP is Back! The Healthy Incentives Program has received supplemental funding to continue through the end of June! HIP allows SNAP recipients to purchase fruits and vegetables from local farms. Stop by the purple market tent to learn more.
Use HIP on fruits and veggies at Crabapple Farm, Wingate Farm, Old Friends Farm, Hart Farm and Red Fire Farm then stop by the purple market tent to get up to $10 of your SNAP purchase doubled!
