By looking at the cover"

If you ever find yourself in the very cool city of Easthampton, MA, be sure to check out their modestly sized Farmer's Market in the heart of downtown.
The market is in a parking lot behind 50 Payson Avenue and during the summer it is open on Sundays from 10-2. There is plenty of parking on the streets that surround the market, or in the park across the street.
It's a "Producer Focused" market, meaning that the vendors are expected to "grow, raise, produce, or create their products themselves, or they will provide unique products that represent other local farmers".
There was live music on site which was a nice addition to the vendor booths that offered local vegetables, fruits, meats, seafood, dairy, eggs, grains, nuts, flowers, wine, herbs, crafts, clothing, and specialty products.
We saw one food truck on site, from the Wicked Whisk.
