| Farmers Market 7/16: New Site & Hours | |
 Haverhill Farmers Market opens for the season on Saturday, July 16 from 9 am to 1 pm. The site is across the street from last year's location, in between the Haverhill Police Station and the Pentucket Medical Building. This location is safer for customers and safer for vendors. There is plenty of parking on the street and in the parking deck. We've added more vendors and are looking forward to a great season! Info
