The East End Food Market has been hosting a bounty of activities at their Friday (3-7pm) farmers market this month. Friday, October 28, 2022 marks the end of our first spring/Summer Season. Naturally, we’re throwing a party!

Listen for live, lively music at the market. Used cookbooks can be donated—or picked up— at the market any Friday in our free cookbook exchange.

East End Food Market is located between Long Island’s north and south forks, at 139 Main Road, Riverhead, New York. It operates every Friday 3-7pm through October 28, 2022. Its winter farmers market reopens in this space on Saturday, November 26, 9am-1pm.

Admission to the market is always free.

The Market is a project of the nonprofit East End Food Institute (EEFI), currently based in Southampton, NY. The East End Food Institute is fundraising to build East End Food Hub at the 139 Main Road, Riverhead site in 2023. The food hub will focus on aggregation, processing, sales and distribution of local foods to strengthen our regional food system.

The demand for East End Food is growing. East End Food needs a new home to expand its impact.

Founded in 2010, East End Food Institute has transformed tens of thousands of pounds of produce into products. East End Food shares their community kitchen with many entrepreneurs who also use local ingredients. Programs support farmers, promote the launch of new businesses, and advocate for systems change to create a more sustainable and equitable regional food system that serves everyone.

East End Food facilitates sales and distribution of local farm crops to wholesale buyers through its virtual farmers market platform.
