The Market received a grant in 2011 to advertise the market moving to a new location over the winter. The Town of Burrillville has offered to build a permanent pavilion in a local redevelopment project area. This pavilion gives the BFMA a permanent home, running water, and plenty of storage.We will have the potential for night markets, winter markets, and markets in inclement weather. And when it is not in use with our group we will make it available to other town organization.
