Join CLT in our mission to preserve Charlestown’s open space and natural character for the lasting benefit of our community. The land trust preserves and protects the distinctive character of our local area through acquisition and management of open space.
A New Name: The Charlestown Farmers’ Market
A New Location: The General Stanton Inn — 4115 Old Post Road in Charlestown, Across the Street From the Church of the Holy Spirit
When: Fridays, June 20 to August 25, 2025, 9am to 1pm
The Charlestown Land Trust is pleased to support the General Stanton Inn as they assume the management of the summer farmers’ market in Charlestown.
Shoppers and visitors will continue to find quality goods and a welcoming atmosphere just across the street from last year’s market location. Locally grown products from your favorite farmers, veggies and shellfish, flowers and honey will be waiting. Products – made and prepared by vendors you’ve come to know and trust along with new ones for you to discover. Baked goods, specialty foods, jams and jellies and more. We plan to have a Charlestown Land Trust table at the market to continue to share our mission of protecting what we love…and to spend time with our community.
If you are interested in being a vendor, or wish more market info, here is the 2025 Farmers Market Application. For questions, please contact the General Stanton Inn at [email protected].
The CLT expresses deep appreciation to all who have been part of our farmers’ market community over the course of the past 17 years: To the Church of the Holy Spirit who welcomed us for 13 summers and shared their beautiful grounds along with a generous area for storage of equipment (and more!). To our volunteers who provided the physical labor of helping with set up, clean up, parking, photography, and staffing the CLT market table with information about the value of protecting the land and sea we love. To the vendors who showed up with the finest quality produce and products (along with their positivity). To our market managers who ran things with competence, good will and an ability to problem solve. To the many nonprofit groups that brought information about services and opportunities in our area. To the musicians who enlivened the market each week. And most especially to the community of people who came often, shopped, mingled, lingered, and joined in the work of the Charlestown Land Trust. Our gratitude is sincere and heartfelt.
