News & Updates

Greetings! My name is Kate McGoldrick, and I am thrilled to serve as the new Rockport Exchange Farmers Market Manager. I am originally from Danvers, MA, and I moved to Rockport in 2020 with my partner Adriana. For more than a decade, I’ve dedicated myself to farming, working on various farms across the North Shore and Greater Boston area. In 2020, my partner and I started our own small farm. You may recognize us from the Rockport Farmers Market last year. I hope that my experience as a farmer and vendor at various farmers’ markets over the years will be beneficial to this role. I am passionate about promoting the SNAP program, ensuring access to fresh, local produce for all. I look forward to working with vendors, volunteers, and local organizations, and being actively involved in the Rockport and Cape Ann community. Let’s come together, support our local makers and producers, and celebrate the vibrant agricultural heritage of our region at the Rockport Exchange Farmers Market. See you there!


Good news — How you can make an impact and support local food!

Dear Friends of Rockport Farmers Market,

We have embarked on our first ever Rockport Exchange Annual Fundraising Appeal.  We have set an ambitious goal of $25,000.  Your contribution will support hiring a part-time Market Coordinator this year to help our all-volunteer crew and cover other operating expenses so we can grow our market to better serve you. 

An anonymous donor will generously match your Rockport Exchange gift dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000!  Your $25 donation becomes $50, your $100 donation becomes $200, $500 becomes $1,000.  You get the idea…..

Let’s meet this challenge together.  Please give now so we can raise a total of $10,000 by the first day of spring, March 20, when we gear up for the 2023 Farmers Market.   

Please make a donation today at Rockport Exchange or mail a check to “Rockport Exchange” and send to Rockport Exchange, P.O. Box 2294, Rockport, MA 01966.  To become part of our Sustainable Circle, please consider $1,000 or more.  But any size gift will be meaningful to us.

Thank you for your support of local food.

Dear Friends, 

We – ALL OF US – met our match and beat our deadline of March 20 to raise the $5,000 needed and now matched by another $5,000!  On March 12, we received a $1,000 commitment followed by a flurry of additional GoFundMe donations.  Our GFM match campaign raised $6,980 in record time bringing our grand total to $19,865 (yikes!) reflecting all contributions since December.  We continue to accept donations as we close in on our annual goal of $25,000.  We are humbled and grateful, and as we say every week, we cannot do this without YOU!
