Aquidneck Growers' Market

Aquidneck Community Table works diligently to foster a healthy and accessible food system on Aquidneck Island, featuring initiatives such as farmers markets, community gardens, and educational programs that inspire youth to embrace nutritious foods. The organization supports over 40 local farmers and small food businesses, while also providing community garden plots for families and youth education programs aimed at promoting healthier habits.

In 2021, Aquidneck Community Table launched the Root Riders program, engaging high school students from across the island to maintain school and community gardens, ultimately selling their produce at farm stands. Through various programs and collaborations, the organization addresses current and future challenges related to community health and food sustainability.
