Liked the mural painting last weekend? They'll continue on the first Saturday of each month, along with the new outdoor Art Market being held 10am–3pm across the street at The Steel Yard (27 Sims Ave). There's always something fun in The Valley!

This season, Sims Market has farm and food vendors inside and out. Through June 30 we will continue to require masks at all times unless you are sitting at a table, regardless of vaccination status. Please do not walk around the market without a mask on.
|
|
We no longer count as you enter and exit. Sampling is now allowed, as well as eating and drinking inside. We kindly remind you to please put your mask back on once you're finished eating/drinking. At the end of June we will be reevaluating our guidelines and will keep you updated.

Big shout-out to our team members Tenin, Nelson, Tim, and Henri for putting in the groundwork and making the boxes, and to Chloe for sourcing all the awesome local produce!
We're looking forward to making more boxes for Brown in the upcoming weeks.

Food Solutions New England
Updating the New England Food Vision
In 2014, Farm Fresh RI adopted the first-edition "50 by 60" Food Vision" from Food Solutions New England (FSNE), as one of the guiding visions for our organization. The regional plan had the goal of building capacity for our region to produce 50 percent of its own food by 2060. (90% of the food we consume still comes from outside the region.)
Now FSNE is asking important questions like: What is our collective vision for the future of New England’s regional food system? How might 30% of New England's food be produced in our own region by 2030?
Learn more from FSNE and register your interest in the Vision Update process:
|
|
"Whether it’s because of disruptions brought on by the Covid19 pandemic, growing attention to the persistent racism and white supremacist patterns in our culture, or accelerating uncertainty around climate and related crises, many of us in the FSNE network have realized that it’s time to update the original New England Food Vision to better reflect where we are now and what the pivotal decade ahead requires of us as a food system transformation network. How would you like to stay connected to the Vision Update process or even participate in that Update? We are at the beginning of a 12- to 18-month process, but please take a moment to register your interest here. |
