SUMMARY:Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame 2017 Inductions & Concerts (Part 2)
DESCRIPTION:PAWTUCKET – With ten inductees in Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame’s Class of 2017\, organizers split the celebration into three separate events with the Jazz and R&B inductions taking place last Sunday at the Greenwich Odeum. There will be two more induction concerts held at The MET this weekend. On Saturday\, April 29\, at 8:00 p.m.\, the 2017 RIMHOF Rock Induction Concert – Part I will feature performances by Kristin Hersh\, David Narcizo\, and Fred Abong of Throwing Muses\, Neutral Nation\, and Plan 9. On Sunday\, April 30\, the unveiling of all ten R.I. Music Hall of Fame’s Class of 2017 inductee exhibits will take place in the Hall of Fame museum space at 2:00 p.m. followed by the 2017 RIMHOF Rock Induction Concert – Part 2 featuring Rizzz\, Phil Greene\, and The Wild Turkey Band / Hometown Rockers\, beginning at 3:00 p.m. \nThe ten Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame’s 2017 inductees are: Artie Cabral\, Phil Greene\, Dan Moretti\, Neutral Nation\, Billy Osborne\, Plan 9\, Frank Potenza\, Rizzz\, Throwing Muses\, and The Wild Turkey Band / Hometown Rockers. \nThe Unveiling Ceremony for all 2017 RIMHOF Inductee exhibits takes place Sunday\, April 30\, at 2:00 p.m. in the Hall of Fame itself\, located within the Hope Artiste Village complex\, 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI. Both concerts take place in The MET\, 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI and tickets for both the April 29 and April 30 events at The Met are $20.00 in advance and $25.00 at the door. \nWhile the Unveiling Ceremony Is A Free Event\, a ticket will be required for entrance to Sunday’s 3 p.m. concert in The Met. Tickets for the April 29 and April 30 concerts can be purchased at themetri.com. \nThe Music Hall of Fame initiative\,” says Rick Bellaire\, vice chair of RIMHOF\, “provides a great opportunity to not only acknowledge Rhode Island’s musical greats and celebrate their achievements\, but to finally have an organization whose primary goal is to promote and preserve Rhode Island’s rich musical heritage in all its forms. With actual exhibit space\, coupled with our online digital archive\, we have in place the tools to curate and showcase the best of Rhode Island’s musical artistry.” \nAll proceeds from RIMHOF’s annual induction events go toward creating the museum displays\, acquiring recordings and memorabilia\, and digitizing that collection for permanent online access for future generations. All organizational work has been donated by members of the Board Of Directors and a staff of volunteers. \nThe Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame\, formed in 2011\, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to celebrating\, honoring\, and preserving the legacy of Rhode Island musicians\, educators and industry professionals who have made significant contributions to both the national and Rhode Island music scene. At last year’s sold out induction/concert event\, the public saw 10 displays unveiled honoring the inductees in the museum space located in the hallways of Hope Artiste Village. This year’s induction ceremony on April 30 will see ten more displays unveiled celebrating the 2017 inductees and bringing the total to 53 inductee exhibits produced in just six years. Eventually\, the museum will hold more than 100 displays as well as assorted Rhode Island music history memorabilia and interactive components for visitors to enjoy. \nFor press release questions or bio info contact Russell Gusetti at rgusetti@gmail.com \nFor inductee interviews and questions about the music archive\, contact Rick Bellaire at 401-751-5351 or at mederick1@verizon.net \nFor general information regarding the Rhode Island Music Hall of Fame\, call 401-225-8860 or contact Dr. Robert Billington at 401-724-2200 or at bvri@aol.com \nFor more information\, visit www.rhodeislandmusichalloffame.com

SUMMARY:Indoor Wintertime Farmers Market (Final Day)
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the wintertime market\, Farm Fresh Rhode Island will be hosting special events\, cooking demos\, give-aways\, and sales throughout the season. Ever growing\, the 2016–2017 Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market will be home to a bustling community of shoppers\, families\, musicians\, artists\, growers\, and artisans gathering over a shared interest in delicious locally grown foods. The market will feature over 80 new and returning vendors selling a huge array of local products\, from fresh produce\, seafood\, poultry\, meats\, and cheeses to baked goods\, prepared foods\, herbal remedies\, seasonal flowers and wreaths… and so much more! The Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market is located in two spacious hallways at 1005 and 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI 02860. The R-Line bus literally stops at the market’s front door. Multiple parking lots are provided for convenience\, and street parking is available in the surrounding neighborhood. Ramp accessibility is located at the 999 Main St entrance and in the building’s center courtyard. For more information: farmfreshri.org. \nFrom Humble Beginnings — 10 Years of Supporting Local Growers\n“Let’s just do it. Let’s find a place!” That was how it all started\, seemingly simple words that transformed years of dreaming into a realistic way to support RI food producers all year long. Farm Fresh RI Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin was there\, then just starting at the fledgling nonprofit. Griffin along with Farm Fresh RI founders Louella Hill and Noah Fulmer knew that local growers need a consistent marketplace to thrive\, even after the New England temperatures start to dip. But asking for a commitment from vendors and pulling together all the logistics were far from a sure thing. \n“At first\, we weren’t even certain it would fly\,” explains Griffin. “As a grower\, it’s one thing to need a marketplace. It’s another to be able to dedicate valuable time and resources to test new waters.” In fact\, the market may not have gotten off the ground in 2007 without integral support from AS220\, a Providence gallery and forum for the arts that donated space and tables for that first wintertime market. But the market was a hit almost immediately — thanks to Hill Orchards\, Simmons Farm\, Matunuck Oyster Farm\, Earth Essence Herbals\, Wishing Stone Farm\, Jack’s Snacks and Whispering Elms Farm blazing the trail\, and Farm Fresh RI rounding out the market with buy-in from other small vendors. So\, after that first season\, Griffin and team were again in search of a space to house the growing demand. \nBy the following November\, 2008\, the market had moved to its current home in the Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket\, after recommendations by Farm Fresh RI friends and market partners New Harvest Coffee Roasters and Seven Stars Bakery\, which had already set up shop in the building. Jumping dramatically from 7 to 51 vendors in just its second year\, the market’s success was a boon\, and it has continued to thrive in the years since. In Fall 2012\, with the market bursting at the seams\, Farm Fresh RI expanded the market into two hallways — as it will continue to be this\, the 10th year! \n“The Wintertime Market has made a real difference to a lot of local growers\,” explains Griffin. “Having a stream of income from the other eight months of the year can help make or break small food & agra businesses. And our community is hungry for what they catch\, grow and create. Making these connections is what Farm Fresh RI is all about.” \nCash\, Credit/Debit\, EBT Accepted\nThe market accepts cash\, check\, credit/debit\, and EBT. For shoppers using SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits\, Farm Fresh RI provides a 40% bonus! Customers simply swipe their EBT card at any of the market Welcome Tables and receive tokens to spend on groceries at the market. For every $5 swiped on EBT\, shoppers get $2 FREE Bonus Bucks to buy fresh fruits and vegetables — and the tokens never expire! \nAbout Farm Fresh Rhode Island\nFarm Fresh Rhode Island is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded in 2004. They are a small organization with a big mission — growing a local food system that values the environment\, health and quality of life of area farmers and eaters. Part incubator\, part activator\, Farm Fresh RI offers a wide array of access\, education\, and distribution programs aimed at building healthier communities\, increasing access to fresh food\, strengthening community-based businesses\, and improving the impact of food production and distribution on our environment.

Farm Fresh RI Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin was there\, then just starting at the fledgling nonprofit. Griffin along with Farm Fresh RI founders Louella Hill and Noah Fulmer knew that local growers need a consistent marketplace to thrive\, even after the New England temperatures start to dip. But asking for a commitment from vendors and pulling together all the logistics were far from a sure thing. \n“At first\, we weren’t even certain it would fly\,” explains Griffin. “As a grower\, it’s one thing to need a marketplace.

But the market was a hit almost immediately — thanks to Hill Orchards\, Simmons Farm\, Matunuck Oyster Farm\, Earth Essence Herbals\, Wishing Stone Farm\, Jack’s Snacks and Whispering Elms Farm blazing the trail\, and Farm Fresh RI rounding out the market with buy-in from other small vendors. So\, after that first season\, Griffin and team were again in search of a space to house the growing demand. \nBy the following November\, 2008\, the market had moved to its current home in the Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket\, after recommendations by Farm Fresh RI friends and market partners New Harvest Coffee Roasters and Seven Stars Bakery\, which had already set up shop in the building.

In Fall 2012\, with the market bursting at the seams\, Farm Fresh RI expanded the market into two hallways — as it will continue to be this\, the 10th year! \n“The Wintertime Market has made a real difference to a lot of local growers\,” explains Griffin. “Having a stream of income from the other eight months of the year can help make or break small food & agra businesses.

DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the wintertime market\, Farm Fresh Rhode Island will be hosting special events\, cooking demos\, give-aways\, and sales throughout the season. Ever growing\, the 2016–2017 Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market will be home to a bustling community of shoppers\, families\, musicians\, artists\, growers\, and artisans gathering over a shared interest in delicious locally grown foods. The market will feature over 80 new and returning vendors selling a huge array of local products\, from fresh produce\, seafood\, poultry\, meats\, and cheeses to baked goods\, prepared foods\, herbal remedies\, seasonal flowers and wreaths… and so much more! The Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market is located in two spacious hallways at 1005 and 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI 02860. The R-Line bus literally stops at the market’s front door. Multiple parking lots are provided for convenience\, and street parking is available in the surrounding neighborhood. Ramp accessibility is located at the 999 Main St entrance and in the building’s center courtyard. For more information: farmfreshri.org. \nFrom Humble Beginnings — 10 Years of Supporting Local Growers\n“Let’s just do it. Let’s find a place!” That was how it all started\, seemingly simple words that transformed years of dreaming into a realistic way to support RI food producers all year long. Farm Fresh RI Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin was there\, then just starting at the fledgling nonprofit. Griffin along with Farm Fresh RI founders Louella Hill and Noah Fulmer knew that local growers need a consistent marketplace to thrive\, even after the New England temperatures start to dip. But asking for a commitment from vendors and pulling together all the logistics were far from a sure thing. \n“At first\, we weren’t even certain it would fly\,” explains Griffin. “As a grower\, it’s one thing to need a marketplace. It’s another to be able to dedicate valuable time and resources to test new waters.” In fact\, the market may not have gotten off the ground in 2007 without integral support from AS220\, a Providence gallery and forum for the arts that donated space and tables for that first wintertime market. But the market was a hit almost immediately — thanks to Hill Orchards\, Simmons Farm\, Matunuck Oyster Farm\, Earth Essence Herbals\, Wishing Stone Farm\, Jack’s Snacks and Whispering Elms Farm blazing the trail\, and Farm Fresh RI rounding out the market with buy-in from other small vendors. So\, after that first season\, Griffin and team were again in search of a space to house the growing demand. \nBy the following November\, 2008\, the market had moved to its current home in the Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket\, after recommendations by Farm Fresh RI friends and market partners New Harvest Coffee Roasters and Seven Stars Bakery\, which had already set up shop in the building. Jumping dramatically from 7 to 51 vendors in just its second year\, the market’s success was a boon\, and it has continued to thrive in the years since. In Fall 2012\, with the market bursting at the seams\, Farm Fresh RI expanded the market into two hallways — as it will continue to be this\, the 10th year! \n“The Wintertime Market has made a real difference to a lot of local growers\,” explains Griffin. “Having a stream of income from the other eight months of the year can help make or break small food & agra businesses. And our community is hungry for what they catch\, grow and create. Making these connections is what Farm Fresh RI is all about.” \nCash\, Credit/Debit\, EBT Accepted\nThe market accepts cash\, check\, credit/debit\, and EBT. For shoppers using SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits\, Farm Fresh RI provides a 40% bonus! Customers simply swipe their EBT card at any of the market Welcome Tables and receive tokens to spend on groceries at the market. For every $5 swiped on EBT\, shoppers get $2 FREE Bonus Bucks to buy fresh fruits and vegetables — and the tokens never expire! \nAbout Farm Fresh Rhode Island\nFarm Fresh Rhode Island is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded in 2004. They are a small organization with a big mission — growing a local food system that values the environment\, health and quality of life of area farmers and eaters. Part incubator\, part activator\, Farm Fresh RI offers a wide array of access\, education\, and distribution programs aimed at building healthier communities\, increasing access to fresh food\, strengthening community-based businesses\, and improving the impact of food production and distribution on our environment.

SUMMARY:Indoor Wintertime Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the wintertime market\, Farm Fresh Rhode Island will be hosting special events\, cooking demos\, give-aways\, and sales throughout the season. Ever growing\, the 2016–2017 Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market will be home to a bustling community of shoppers\, families\, musicians\, artists\, growers\, and artisans gathering over a shared interest in delicious locally grown foods. The market will feature over 80 new and returning vendors selling a huge array of local products\, from fresh produce\, seafood\, poultry\, meats\, and cheeses to baked goods\, prepared foods\, herbal remedies\, seasonal flowers and wreaths… and so much more! The Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market is located in two spacious hallways at 1005 and 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI 02860. The R-Line bus literally stops at the market’s front door. Multiple parking lots are provided for convenience\, and street parking is available in the surrounding neighborhood. Ramp accessibility is located at the 999 Main St entrance and in the building’s center courtyard. For more information: farmfreshri.org. \nFrom Humble Beginnings — 10 Years of Supporting Local Growers\n“Let’s just do it. Let’s find a place!” That was how it all started\, seemingly simple words that transformed years of dreaming into a realistic way to support RI food producers all year long. Farm Fresh RI Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin was there\, then just starting at the fledgling nonprofit. Griffin along with Farm Fresh RI founders Louella Hill and Noah Fulmer knew that local growers need a consistent marketplace to thrive\, even after the New England temperatures start to dip. But asking for a commitment from vendors and pulling together all the logistics were far from a sure thing. \n“At first\, we weren’t even certain it would fly\,” explains Griffin. “As a grower\, it’s one thing to need a marketplace. It’s another to be able to dedicate valuable time and resources to test new waters.” In fact\, the market may not have gotten off the ground in 2007 without integral support from AS220\, a Providence gallery and forum for the arts that donated space and tables for that first wintertime market. But the market was a hit almost immediately — thanks to Hill Orchards\, Simmons Farm\, Matunuck Oyster Farm\, Earth Essence Herbals\, Wishing Stone Farm\, Jack’s Snacks and Whispering Elms Farm blazing the trail\, and Farm Fresh RI rounding out the market with buy-in from other small vendors.

DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the wintertime market\, Farm Fresh Rhode Island will be hosting special events\, cooking demos\, give-aways\, and sales throughout the season. Ever growing\, the 2016–2017 Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market will be home to a bustling community of shoppers\, families\, musicians\, artists\, growers\, and artisans gathering over a shared interest in delicious locally grown foods. The market will feature over 80 new and returning vendors selling a huge array of local products\, from fresh produce\, seafood\, poultry\, meats\, and cheeses to baked goods\, prepared foods\, herbal remedies\, seasonal flowers and wreaths… and so much more! The Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market is located in two spacious hallways at 1005 and 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI 02860. The R-Line bus literally stops at the market’s front door. Multiple parking lots are provided for convenience\, and street parking is available in the surrounding neighborhood. Ramp accessibility is located at the 999 Main St entrance and in the building’s center courtyard. For more information: farmfreshri.org. \nFrom Humble Beginnings — 10 Years of Supporting Local Growers\n“Let’s just do it. Let’s find a place!” That was how it all started\, seemingly simple words that transformed years of dreaming into a realistic way to support RI food producers all year long. Farm Fresh RI Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin was there\, then just starting at the fledgling nonprofit. Griffin along with Farm Fresh RI founders Louella Hill and Noah Fulmer knew that local growers need a consistent marketplace to thrive\, even after the New England temperatures start to dip. But asking for a commitment from vendors and pulling together all the logistics were far from a sure thing. \n“At first\, we weren’t even certain it would fly\,” explains Griffin. “As a grower\, it’s one thing to need a marketplace. It’s another to be able to dedicate valuable time and resources to test new waters.” In fact\, the market may not have gotten off the ground in 2007 without integral support from AS220\, a Providence gallery and forum for the arts that donated space and tables for that first wintertime market. But the market was a hit almost immediately — thanks to Hill Orchards\, Simmons Farm\, Matunuck Oyster Farm\, Earth Essence Herbals\, Wishing Stone Farm\, Jack’s Snacks and Whispering Elms Farm blazing the trail\, and Farm Fresh RI rounding out the market with buy-in from other small vendors. So\, after that first season\, Griffin and team were again in search of a space to house the growing demand. \nBy the following November\, 2008\, the market had moved to its current home in the Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket\, after recommendations by Farm Fresh RI friends and market partners New Harvest Coffee Roasters and Seven Stars Bakery\, which had already set up shop in the building. Jumping dramatically from 7 to 51 vendors in just its second year\, the market’s success was a boon\, and it has continued to thrive in the years since. In Fall 2012\, with the market bursting at the seams\, Farm Fresh RI expanded the market into two hallways — as it will continue to be this\, the 10th year! \n“The Wintertime Market has made a real difference to a lot of local growers\,” explains Griffin. “Having a stream of income from the other eight months of the year can help make or break small food & agra businesses. And our community is hungry for what they catch\, grow and create. Making these connections is what Farm Fresh RI is all about.” \nCash\, Credit/Debit\, EBT Accepted\nThe market accepts cash\, check\, credit/debit\, and EBT. For shoppers using SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits\, Farm Fresh RI provides a 40% bonus! Customers simply swipe their EBT card at any of the market Welcome Tables and receive tokens to spend on groceries at the market. For every $5 swiped on EBT\, shoppers get $2 FREE Bonus Bucks to buy fresh fruits and vegetables — and the tokens never expire! \nAbout Farm Fresh Rhode Island\nFarm Fresh Rhode Island is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded in 2004. They are a small organization with a big mission — growing a local food system that values the environment\, health and quality of life of area farmers and eaters. Part incubator\, part activator\, Farm Fresh RI offers a wide array of access\, education\, and distribution programs aimed at building healthier communities\, increasing access to fresh food\, strengthening community-based businesses\, and improving the impact of food production and distribution on our environment.

SUMMARY:Verdant Vibes Winter Warmer Concert
DESCRIPTION:Verdant Vibes is pleased to present the first concert of our second season\, featuring new electro/acoustic music and multimedia by composers from around the world! \nVERDANT VIBES ENSEMBLE will perform pieces both dynamic and sublime selected from our free call for scores: \nJoo Won Park — Armor+2\nCaroline Mallonée — Throwing Mountains\nAlex Weiser — Rumbling Waves\nBekah Simms — bud\nMolly Jones — Conduction #4*\n*world premiere \n[NB: James Bohn’s “Pantone” was postponed to our April 23\, 2017 concert due to injury. Get well soon\, Jim!] \nAwarded the 2016 Dorry Award for “Classical Performance of the Year\,” Verdant Vibes is a new music ensemble and concert series based in Providence that brings together artists and musicians creating new work in a variety of genres and media\, acoustic and electronic. By highlighting the diversity of music composition and performance of our time\, we seek to eschew perceived boundaries\, cross-pollinate ideas and influences\, and build a greater community celebrating the work of living artists. \n///////////////////////// \nwith special guest performances \nMARY PRESCOTT’s “ALICE” [NYC]\nA real life Alice in Wonderland\, pianist Mary Prescott delves into a world of experimental art music – a hyper-sensory dimension of fantasy\, curiosity\, and unpredictability. Examining Lewis Carrol’s surreal Victorian novel through improvisation\, Prescott tries and tests the concepts of time\, identity\, reality and rules\, noting that traditions behave strangely in Wonderland. A classically trained adventurer who thrives in an unlikely playground\, Prescott unbuttons a naive yet profound identity\, eliciting cavernous\, expressive sounds of harmonious discord. Prescott invites listeners to explore their own whims and curiosities from behind the curtains of this bravely vulnerable and evocative music. \nand \nMICHAEL DEQUATTRO\, joined by Jim Moses [RI]\nMichael Dequattro is an eclectic artist known for fusing together acoustic\, electronic\, and improvisational elements. He is able to move freely between classical\, jazz\, popular\, and world idioms often bringing these styles together in his compositions. The Providence Journal critic Channing Grey has described his work as “energetic” and “glittering”. \n///////////////////////// \nand beverages available by donation thanks to\nFoolproof Brewing Company\nand Lagunitas Brewing Company\nSpiced (spiked) cider\, too \n$10 at the door \n///////////////////////// \nThis activity is made possible in part by a grant from the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts\, through an appropriation by the Rhode Island General Assembly and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. \n/////////////////////////\nHOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

SUMMARY:Indoor Wintertime Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the wintertime market\, Farm Fresh Rhode Island will be hosting special events\, cooking demos\, give-aways\, and sales throughout the season. Ever growing\, the 2016–2017 Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market will be home to a bustling community of shoppers\, families\, musicians\, artists\, growers\, and artisans gathering over a shared interest in delicious locally grown foods. The market will feature over 80 new and returning vendors selling a huge array of local products\, from fresh produce\, seafood\, poultry\, meats\, and cheeses to baked goods\, prepared foods\, herbal remedies\, seasonal flowers and wreaths… and so much more! The Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market is located in two spacious hallways at 1005 and 999 Main St.\, Pawtucket\, RI 02860. The R-Line bus literally stops at the market’s front door. Multiple parking lots are provided for convenience\, and street parking is available in the surrounding neighborhood. Ramp accessibility is located at the 999 Main St entrance and in the building’s center courtyard. For more information: farmfreshri.org. \nFrom Humble Beginnings — 10 Years of Supporting Local Growers\n“Let’s just do it. Let’s find a place!” That was how it all started\, seemingly simple words that transformed years of dreaming into a realistic way to support RI food producers all year long. Farm Fresh RI Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin was there\, then just starting at the fledgling nonprofit. Griffin along with Farm Fresh RI founders Louella Hill and Noah Fulmer knew that local growers need a consistent marketplace to thrive\, even after the New England temperatures start to dip. But asking for a commitment from vendors and pulling together all the logistics were far from a sure thing. \n“At first\, we weren’t even certain it would fly\,” explains Griffin. “As a grower\, it’s one thing to need a marketplace. It’s another to be able to dedicate valuable time and resources to test new waters.” In fact\, the market may not have gotten off the ground in 2007 without integral support from AS220\, a Providence gallery and forum for the arts that donated space and tables for that first wintertime market. But the market was a hit almost immediately — thanks to Hill Orchards\, Simmons Farm\, Matunuck Oyster Farm\, Earth Essence Herbals\, Wishing Stone Farm\, Jack’s Snacks and Whispering Elms Farm blazing the trail\, and Farm Fresh RI rounding out the market with buy-in from other small vendors. So\, after that first season\, Griffin and team were again in search of a space to house the growing demand. \nBy the following November\, 2008\, the market had moved to its current home in the Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket\, after recommendations by Farm Fresh RI friends and market partners New Harvest Coffee Roasters and Seven Stars Bakery\, which had already set up shop in the building. Jumping dramatically from 7 to 51 vendors in just its second year\, the market’s success was a boon\, and it has continued to thrive in the years since. In Fall 2012\, with the market bursting at the seams\, Farm Fresh RI expanded the market into two hallways — as it will continue to be this\, the 10th year! \n“The Wintertime Market has made a real difference to a lot of local growers\,” explains Griffin. “Having a stream of income from the other eight months of the year can help make or break small food & agra businesses. And our community is hungry for what they catch\, grow and create. Making these connections is what Farm Fresh RI is all about.” \nCash\, Credit/Debit\, EBT Accepted\nThe market accepts cash\, check\, credit/debit\, and EBT. For shoppers using SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits\, Farm Fresh RI provides a 40% bonus! Customers simply swipe their EBT card at any of the market Welcome Tables and receive tokens to spend on groceries at the market. For every $5 swiped on EBT\, shoppers get $2 FREE Bonus Bucks to buy fresh fruits and vegetables — and the tokens never expire! \nAbout Farm Fresh Rhode Island\nFarm Fresh Rhode Island is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded in 2004. They are a small organization with a big mission — growing a local food system that values the environment\, health and quality of life of area farmers and eaters. Part incubator\, part activator\, Farm Fresh RI offers a wide array of access\, education\, and distribution programs aimed at building healthier communities\, increasing access to fresh food\, strengthening community-based businesses\, and improving the impact of food production and distribution on our environment.
