Our Purpose

The Bridgeport Farmers Market Collaborative is a group of 8 weekly farmers markets that operate across Bridgeport from July – October. Each of our farmers markets accepts SNAP, WIC and Senior FMNP, and offers an incentive program to make the fresh, local produce sold at the market affordable to residents receiving food assistance. The Bridgeport Farmers Market Collaborative conducts marketing and outreach campaigns for all 8 farmers markets and ensures consistency of programming across sites, maximizing use of ease for consumers.
