Boston Local Food Festival Returns to Rose Kennedy Greenway

The Boston Local Food Festival will take place from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., September 16, at the Rose Kennedy Greenway, in Boston.

The Boston Local Food Festival has been endorsed by the city of Boston, Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR) and several leading food organizations, businesses and farms. The organizers have committed to being a zero waste event.
