The Lawrence Farmers Markets are held from July through October, every Wednesday on Appleton Way in Lawrence’s downtown Essex Street business district and Saturday at the Greater Lawrence Family's Health Center Park Street site. The markets feature a wide variety of local produce, as well as crafts. Since assuming management of the downtown market in 2006, Groundwork Lawrence has sought to increase access to the market for all shoppers by accepting SNAP (food stamps) and credit and debit cards and working to increase the redemption of WIC and Senior Farmers Market coupons.

On Saturday, April 20, the Merrimack Valley YMCA is celebrating YMCA’s Healthy Kids Day® with a free community event that encourages kids in the Merrimack Valley to get moving and learning, and families living healthier. Healthy Kids Day, the Y’s national initiative to improve families’ health and well-being, takes place at 1,900 Ys and kick-starts healthier behaviors now and throughout the summer, a critical out-of-school time for children’s health. Many U.S. children do not get the daily recommended hours of physical activity and reading, and daily amounts of healthy foods.
