Salem Farmers' Market To Open In June For 2026

SALEM, MA — The Salem Farmers Market, with origins dating back four centuries, will return to the downtown area next month.

The opening date is set for June 11, with the market running on Derby Street off Front Street each Thursday from 3 to 7 p.m. through Oct. 8.

The Salem Farmers' Market dates back to 1634. With its peak around 1930, an estimated 10,000 people visited the market on a single Saturday.

The Salem Farmers' Market takes SNAP/EBT payments for market-specific coupons that can be used at the individual vendors. Two vendors this year accept HIP.

While vendor applications are closed for the season, the market is still looking for volunteers to help with the shopper and vendor experience. Those interested in volunteering can do so here.
