Mill City Grows Farm Share Program

Spring Farm Share season runs
February 19, 2026 – May 22, 2026

What is a Farm Share?

When you join a Farm Share Program, you purchase a “share” — or portion — of a farmer’s crops direct from the farmer in advance. Your Farm Share purchase provides up-front financial support to the farmer to purchase seeds and any supplies that are needed to ensure a good harvest. In return, you are guaranteed a share of the farmer’s bountiful harvest!

A Mill City Grows Farm Share is a mix of our own Lowell-grown crops and crops grown by our local partner farms and farmers. We also include locally made pantry goods such as grains, sauces, and relishes. As a Farm Share participant, you’re supporting our non-profit work in Lowell, local agriculture and food systems, and all the small family farms that work year-round to provide nutritious, diverse crops to our communities! This season, we’re excited to offer locally grown mushrooms from our partners at McGuire’s Mushrooms!

How do I pay for my Farm Share?

You can easily sign up online using your credit card. Your payment must be made in full before receiving your Farm Share. Spring season opens soon!

Can I use my SNAP/EBT to pay for my Farm Share?

Yes you can! Get money back on your EBT card each month when you sign up to receive a Mill City Grows Farm Share. To learn more, please email James Tierney at James[at]millcitygrows[dot]org or call James at 508-251-9044.
