Mass Farmers Markets Announces our First Annual Urban Barn Dance and Harvest Supper:
Friday, October 24th from 7 – 10pm in Somerville’s Davis Square

On October 24th the George Dilboy VFW Hall in Somerville’s Davis Square will host a lively and delicious celebration of this year’s growing season. Guests will toast the hard work of their favorite farmers with a hearty locally grown supper, and then continue the celebration with live music and contra dancing.

Tickets to the Urban Barn Dance and Harvest Supper are $40 each, and are available by calling or e-mailing the Mass Farmers Markets office
at (781) 893-8222 or
staff@massfarmersmarkets.org.

Mass Farmers Markets is the non-profit that brings you the Davis Square Farmers Market, as well as the markets at Union, Central, and Copley Squares, and the market at Boston City Hall.

Dinner will feature several different preparations of locally raised pork donated by farmers Kate Stillman and Aidan Davin of Stillman’s at the Turkey Farm. Chef Bob Sargent of flora restaurant will be at the helm in the kitchen, and besides creating mouth-watering pork dishes, he promises hearty sides to accompany them. Dessert will be donated by Hamilton Orchards and Whole Foods Market. Libations will be available at the VFW’s cash bar.

After dinner we’ll push the tables back and bring country-style dancing to the city! When catching a breath from dancing, attendees can bid on a silent auction with prizes including a VIP package for two to the Boston Music Awards.

$20 of each ticket purchase is tax-deductible and directly benefits the work of Mass Farmers Markets, the only organization working state-wide on behalf of farmers markets and the farmers, families, and communities that depend on them.

Mass Farmers Markets also welcomes dinner sponsors at the following levels:

Copy all of the text, delete it, switch to the HTML editor, and paste it back in. Then judiciously add in some occasional bolding and italics if you want. Thanks.

And once you've done that, you can either use HTML to put the links back in, or switch back to the Rich Text editor to do that. But for most purposes, we consider the Rich Text editor to be Evil. Thanks.
