Mission
To strengthen the Tiverton, and greater Rhode Island communities, by operating a nonprofit farmers market that improves public access to local food, supports regional agriculture and small food-based businesses, and provides a community gathering place for local farms, food producers, artisans, musicians, nonprofit organizations, and residents. The organization's exempt purpose includes promoting local food systems, community education, small business participation, and public engagement through a year-round market and related educational activities.
Program accomplishments
- During 2025, Arrowhead Farms operated the Tiverton Farmers Market as a year-round community farmers market serving Tiverton, Rhode Island and the surrounding area. The market's primary program was to provide a recurring public marketplace connecting the community with local farms, food producers, food makers, artists, musicians, nonprofit entities, local groups, and small businesses. Through this program, the organization helped residents and visitors access fresh local produce, meats, seafood, baked goods, prepared foods, honey, herbal products, and gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian food options. The organization held approximately 50 markets during the year, including approximately 12 specialty markets focused on locally grown foods, seafood, holidays, and seasonal community needs. The market operated from community-based locations in Tiverton, including the winter market location at the Tiverton Middle School cafeteria and the seasonal market location at the Tiverton Town Farm Recreation Area. In addition to operating regular markets, the organization provided approximately 6 to 8 educational workshops on topics such as beekeeping, fig propagation, fermenting, and herbalism. These workshops supported public education related to local agriculture, food production, home growing, preservation, and sustainable community food practices. The market also created opportunities for local food entrepreneurs, farms, artists, musicians, nonprofit organizations, and community groups to reach the public, build awareness, and participate in the local economy. The organization's 2025 activities supported its exempt purpose by strengthening the local food system, increasing access to locally produced food, encouraging community engagement, supporting small local businesses and producers, and providing public education and gathering opportunities for the Tiverton community. The organization did not make grants or allocations as part of this program during the year; its program service activity consisted primarily of operating the market, coordinating vendors and community participants, promoting local food access, and providing educational/community programming.Expenses $77,815
