SOMERVILLE, MA — Assembly Row has opened its first-ever farmers' market in Somerville.
The new open-air market is located between Shake Shack and Tatte Bakery + Café and features about 30 vendor stalls selling fresh produce, baked goods, dairy, eggs, frozen fish, locally sourced meats, mushrooms, and other seasonal products. Vendors are expected to rotate throughout the season.
The market held its grand opening on Friday, June 12, with a 3 p.m. ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by local officials, including Somerville Mayor Jake Wilson. Wilson helped kick off the event with remarks before joining the ribbon-cutting and sampling a homemade popsicle from one of the vendors.
