The Bromfield School

The League of Women Voters of Harvard and the Harvard Schools Trust are pleased to announce the 54th Annual Harvard Flea Market, to be held on Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on the grounds of the Bromfield School. Rain date: Sunday, October 11, 2026.
Cash admission is $5 per person for adults and seniors; $1 per child ages 6 to 12; and $10 for early birds from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
Bargain hunters will descend upon Harvard for the 54th year to attend the largest one-day outdoor flea market northwest of Boston. Shoppers come with bags and carts in tow to visit more than 180 booths filled with antiques and collectibles – toys, games, jewelry and vintage clothing, seasonal décor, artwork and paintings, pottery and glassware, and so much more.
The flea market boasts a popular food court area with both traditional favorites and ethnic cuisines, including Thai food and specialty desserts. The Harvard Lions Club serves hamburgers, cheeseburgers, samosas, veggie burgers, hot dogs, fries, sweet potato fries, funnel cakes, fresh-squeezed lemonade, and other drinks.
The Congregational Church of Harvard will hold its Apple Festival, “Pies on the Common,” selling homemade harvest soup and apple pies fresh from local ovens.
Parking and restrooms will be available, including handicap-accessible facilities. Please do not block private driveways. Parking restrictions will be strictly enforced, including ticketing and towing. Emergency staff will be onsite to assist with medical emergencies.
The Harvard Flea Market gatekeepers will accept cash only for admission; no checks or credit/debit cards will be accepted. Some booth vendors may accept credit card payments via Square® or other payment apps, but most vendors accept only cash.
Dogs are permitted at the flea market provided they are on a leash and their owners pick up after them.

First Parish of Sudbury

Join us for &nbsp;Why We Tell Stories&nbsp;with Resident Minister Aiden McMahon. We have always been storytellers. Truth-seeking and meaning-making are central to what it means to be human, and religion has long sought to provide THE human story. In our pluralistic world, and in a pluralistic faith, can we have a single story? Does that matter? Or is it in the seeking that something like Truth can be found? Please join us <a href="https://fpsudbury.org/worship-services/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">in-person or online</a>.

First Parish of Sudbury, located at 327 Concord Road, Sudbury, is a diverse and welcoming community of spiritual seekers who strive to learn together and support one another as they celebrate life’s important moments and serve the larger community. The First Parish was founded in 1640. The congregation worships in the historic meetinghouse that was built in 1797.
