Williamstown Farmer’s Market (WFM)
The Williamstown Farmers Market (WFM) activates a central community gathering space that facilitates the connection between local food producers and artisan craft vendors. The WFM's Community Essentials Initiative ensures that fresh, healthy food can be accessed by those in the community experiencing food insecurity through SNAP, WIC, Senior Coupons, matching programs which double amount that card holders can purchase, and a produce-buy-back program that supports farmers by purchasing leftover produce and eggs and delivering them to local food pantries.

ABOUT WILD OATS MARKET
Wild Oats Market Local, organic, & specialty community-owned co-op grocery store! Everyone can shop & Anyone can join.
We contribute regularly to non-profit organizations serving our community, with a focus on those groups helping in areas central to our mission and ends policy.
Wild Oats Market began as a buying club in 1975 organized by a small group of motivated people who wanted unrefined, additive-free foods and products with minimum packaging.
In 1982, our storefront operation started with only 100 members and $5,000. As the years passed, we attracted a growing number of individuals interested in health and the environment, as well as organic and natural foods, and supporting the efforts of local farmers and artisans.
Because we’re a co-op, Wild Oats’ member-owners have always been able to make sure that its actions reflected their commitment to local and organic food, sustainable living, social responsibility and related concerns. Our Cooperative Principles and Ends Policy continue to guide us nearly 40 years later.
We expanded to our present location at 320 Main Street in 2005, giving us more space to offer a wider selection of options. Today we have more than 1600 member-owners and specialize in local and organic produce, fair-trade and allergen-free grocery items, artisan cheese, locally and sustainably raised meats, regional craft beer and organic wines and all the amazing house-made items from our kitchen and bakery.
