At Goddard Memorial State Park, the RI Grown Farmers Market puts the spotlight on local food and the people who produce it. This weekly market is a chance to meet growers of vegetables, fruit, flowers, and other favorites. Early weeks focus on bedding plants, hanging plants, cut flowers, meat, early vegetable crops, honey, and maple syrup. As traditional local summer crops come into season, additional vendors participate and the selection expands.

Music Bingo brings a lively twist to the classic game at Torpedo Lounge. Listen for well-loved tracks, check off your squares, and compete for prizes and bragging rights while enjoying good food, refreshing drinks, and a welcoming crowd. It is free to play, the soundtrack keeps the atmosphere upbeat, and it offers an easy way to relax with friends.
