Mount Hope Farmers Market Annual Harvest Celebration
Best veggies and goodies of the season come together with kid friendly activities, live music and more.
The Mount Hope Farmers Market’s Annual End-of-Season Pumpkin-Carving Celebration!
Calling all Families, Kids, & Grownup Kids: The Farmers Market is celebrating the close of our outdoor season—and the move back in to the warm barn—with some family fun at the market!
We’re again partnering w/ Macaroni Kid, the kids activity blog/calendar (to get all sorts of info from them about family events and activities in the East Bay & Aquidneck Island, sign up here), to throw a free pumpkin decorating activity for the little ones. Pumpkins & gourds from Maplewood Farm will be provided for children to dress up and take home!
The URI Master Gardener Michelle Hughes will be back with an info table to answer your fall gardening questions, and will also have activities & information for kids! University of Rhode Island Extension’s Water Quality Program will also be on hand sharing information on water testing and ensuring well-water quality for homeowners with private wells.
Come shop, learn, play, eat breakfast or lunch w/ Acacia Cafe’s Truck, take a picture w/ the Mount Hope “Your Face Here’ Farmer Cutout Boards, listen to live music from the Patty & Buster Show, and enjoy one more market in the sunshine!
