Power of Produce (POP) Program for Kids at Davis Square Farmers Market

Davis Square Farmers Market
Somerville, MA | May 20 – November 25, 2026

Looking for a fun, healthy way to get your kids excited about food? Join the POP (Power of Produce) Club at the Davis Square Farmers Market.

POP Club is a free program for kids ages 5–12 that gives them the chance to explore the market, make their own choices, and learn about fresh, local food, all while having a great time.

What is POP Club?

When you enroll your child in POP Club, they’ll receive $3 in POP Bucks every week to spend at the market on:

  • 🍎 Fresh fruits

  • 🥕 Vegetables

  • 🌱 Food-producing plants

They can pick their favorites or try something brand new each week.

Note: POP Bucks can’t be used for items like cookies, drinks, or flowers. Look for signs at vendor stands that accept POP Bucks.

Why Join?

POP Club helps kids:

  • Make healthy food choices

  • Learn where their food comes from

  • Build confidence by making their own purchasing decisions

  • Get involved in the community

  • Support local farmers
