Got this email update on the Neighborhood Produce project, reposted with permission:Hi All,
A big thank-you to everyone who came out to our first pop-up on Saturday and Sunday! We had a great weekend, talked to many supporters, and met a lot of new people from the neighborhood. It was an incredible feeling to finally provide fresh food to the Winter Hill community. It was the first time this variety of produce has been available west of McGrath, since the Star Market closed in 2007!
Next Pop Up:
We will be holding our next pop-up this weekend, same place same time. Please swing by, say hello, check it out, and grab a beer, coffee, or sandwich from the WHBC.
Where: Winter Hill Brewing Company - 328 Broadway, Somerville
When: Saturday 8/13 and Sunday 8/14
Time: 10am to 3 pm
Mass Food Trust Update:
The legislature completed the Economic Development Bill on July 29th, and the authorization for the Mass Food Trust stayed intact! It will now go to the Governor who has 10 days to sign. Please stay tuned for more, and thank you to everyone who contacted their Representative and helped get the bill to this point.
I hope everyone is enjoying this August, and trying to relax and stay cool.

A big thank you to everyone that ventured outdoors, and came to the pop-up market on Sunday. Wow, it was quite a scorcher! Hopefully, we won't have to many more heat waves like that this summer.
The Pop-Up Market is Expanding!
This weekend we will expand the pop-up, and include Friday evening, from 5pm to 8pm. Nothing better than wrapping up a week by drinking a cold brewski at Winter Hill Brewery, and then grabbing fresh produce for the weekend.
Once again this week, we'll have freshly picked local watermelon, both the red and yellow varieties, from Applefield Farm in Stow, MA. They're super sweet and refreshing, and sold out before noon last Saturday. We will also have local baby bok choy, local beefsteak tomatoes, kale, mangos, purple bell peppers and much more.
Where: Winter Hill Brewery - 328 Broadway Somerville, Ma
Friday 8/19 from 5pm to 8pm
Saturday 8/20 from 10am to 3pm
Sunday 8/21 from 10am to 3pm
See you this weekend!
