The farmer's market in Salem has returned. My grandfather and his parents participated in the farmer's market starting in the 1940s. He would drive into Boston to Haymarket each Saturday to pick up produce and transport it back to Salem to sell. There is a great picture of them at their carthanging in my aunt's restaurant.
Salem Main Streets has been working to renew the tradition and now it's a reality! The market operates Thursday evenings from 4:00-7:00pm in Derby Square, right near Old Town Hall.
