Why Join Us?
Kids are at the center of everything we do at the Downtown Milford Farmers Market. We’re Connecticut’s only seasonal farmers market that centers on inspiring the youngest generations as our mission.
We take a bold, intentional approach: sparking healthy relationships with food at the earliest ages, while creating interactive experiences that invite families to grow side by side. This isn’t just a place for adults to shop — it’s where the next generation learns to love fresh food, community, and healthy living.
When you walk through the market, you’re stepping into a space designed for every stage of life — where habits are formed young, support is lifelong, and community isn’t just visited, it’s lived.
To expand this mission, we’ve created dedicated children’s programming that transforms the market into an immersive, hands-on experience for families. Imagine a Saturday where children are the stars — discovering where their food comes from, exploring the market through play, and creating their own mini-adventures. These days bring imagination, curiosity, and energy to every corner of Wasson Field.
