Field of Greens runs a Wednesday market, noon to 4 p.m., on the Lawrence + Memorial Hospital campus at 365 Montauk Avenue in New London.

New London

The same Field of Greens organization behind the L+M Wednesday market also runs a Friday session downtown at Williams Park, Broad and Williams Streets, from 2 to 5 p.m. Both markets share the same mission — walkable access to local produce for New London residents — and both accept WIC and EBT.

CitySeed doubles SNAP and Connecticut Farmers Market Nutrition Program benefits at all of its markets.
