Southcoast  Health System will host public farmers markets at Tobey Hospital Mondays, from

3 p.m. to 6 p.m., from the week of June 17 to the week of October 25,

“We know from research that a large percentage of people on the South Coast do not have the benefit of regular access to fresh, locally-grown fruits and vegetables,” said Kerry Mello, Community Benefits Manager for Southcoast Health System. “This summer’s farmers’ markets are the kick-off to a range of Southcoast programs that provide our employees and our communities with easy access to healthy, locally grown food.”

Local businesses will sell products that include fruits, vegetables, soups, jams, artisan breads and more.
