There are some 115 farmers' markets in Massachusetts. Farmers' Markets are festive outdoor markets where farmers sell their products directly to the consumer.

The Department of Agricultural Resources provides technical assistance to individuals and groups trying to start a farmers' market, helps farmers find appropriate farmers' markets to participate in, and encourages consumers to patronize farmers' markets through the publication of consumer listings, news releases, and other promotional activities.

The Department also administers the Farmers' Market Coupon Program, a federal/state program that provides coupons redeemable for produce sold exclusively at farmers' markets. The program supports local farm sales at farmers' markets, while providing fresh, nutritious foods to those at nutritional risk. Coupons are available through the Women, Infants and Children Program (WIC) Women, Infants, and Children Program (WIC)  and other programs for low-income seniors and individuals.
