The Rist Institute for Sustainability and Energy is thrilled to announce our upcoming indoor farmers markets, designed to serve the campus and surrounding community. In partnership with Mill City Grows, we will feature fresh produce and other local vendors from the area. This initiative aims to encourage our students to shop locally and support sustainable practices.
Spotlight on Taste the Acre: We're excited to highlight Taste the Acre, an initiative that celebrates the cultural and culinary diversity of Lowell’s Acre neighborhood. Taste the Acre has become a cornerstone of the Acre’s community development efforts, featuring a series of food markets, walking tours and community partnerships that market the neighborhood as a food destination. Local chefs, restaurants and cafes collaborate to present their culinary creations, offering residents and visitors a taste of the diverse flavors that define the Acre.
Join us Wednesday, March 19, from 1 to 4 p.m., and be part of a movement toward sustainability and community engagement.
See you at the market!
