Story

The Mason Square Farmers’ Market begins its seventh season on Saturday July 6, offering a great experience of sights, smells and tastes of what local food and community offers.

Every week the market gathers together people of all ages, while we offer great food options, plus live and prerecorded music, information from community organizations and services, and special activities like cooking demonstrations or the annual Breast Cancer awareness event in October. These organizations and organizers believe and support the importance of this market and events.

Where can you meet your local farmers?
In addition to the community the market’s success has depended upon the loyal farmers who have come every week to sell, rain or shine. Glenroy Buchanan of Pioneer Valley NE Growers Co-op was raised in Springfield and played a large part in bringing a market back to the area he knew as Winchester Square growing up. Founded in 1988 the purpose of Glenroy’s enterprise is “to distribute locally grown fruits and vegetables to inner city communities in areas where traditional outlets are not available”.

Gardening the Community (GTC) is another local favorite that has been at the market from the beginning. GTC, as it is known, employs youth from around the Mason Square Neighborhood and beyond to grow fruits and vegetables on vacant or abandoned property; revitalizing and making them productive.

In addition to offering a local flavor, the market has farmers from throughout the Pioneer Valley, like Green Acres Fruit Farm from Wilbraham, which offers apples, plums, pears, and peaches.

The Wholesome Wave Foundation will continue to provide money to double SNAP (food stamps) up to 10 dollars a week (ten dollars gets you an extra ten to spend on fresh fruits and vegetables at the market). The MSFM will always accept WIC and Senior Farmers’ Market Coupons.

Quality. Affordable. Real Food.

Supervisors there like to abuse their position and not do any work what so ever. Lines and lines of patients and the supervisors just sit there on their phones. 1 very nice lady who works reception usually if not all the time gets left alone to handle all the patients while they just sit there and do nothing. I've seen her ask for help but they verbally abuse her and even one time out hands ON THEIR OWN EMPLOYEE TELLING HER SHE NEEDS TO HANDLE IT HERSELF THEN RESUME THEIR FACETIME WITH FRIENDS OR FAMILY. THIS LOCATION IS A DAMN JOKE THE SUPERVISORS ARE VERY TERRIBLE AND NEED TO BE FIRED BECAUSE TBEY DONT CARE ABOUT PATIENTS OR THEIR OWN EMPLOYEES. THEY GET AWARDS EACH MONTH TO SEE WHO THEY MADE THE MOST COMPLAINTS ON EMPLOYEES AND WHO REGUSTERED THE LEAST PATIENTS. SO STUPID SHOULDNT IT REWARDING GOOD WORKERS AND WHO REFISTERED THE MOST PATIENTS SMH. THIS PLACE IS AT RISK OF BEING SUED AND I WILL FIGHT FOR WHATS RIGHT BECAUSE THEY TREAT EVERYONE TERRIBLE AND DONT CARE I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE NICE YOUNG LADY LEFT ALONE IN THE FRONT ALL THE TIME AND SHES PREGNANT TOO DONT ALLOW A PREGNANT EMPLOYEE TO HAVE A LUNCH BREAK SMH EW THESE SUPERVISORS ERK ME

If you have a serious medical condition or are in very bad pain I would suggest that you do not go to this Clinic. I would venture to say that most people that go here only have Medicaid MassHealth and that they don't have any choice to go to a better doctor or clinic because most of them do not accept Medicaid. So you will get bottom-of-the-barrel service and Care here. Of course they will schedule another appointment and do nothing for your pain that works. They get more money out of you that way the more times you go to their Clinic. They really don't care if they help your problem. Probably most people that go here don't have transportation and they live in this area. I think you might even be better off just to go to the emergency room.They have a captive clientele because most of the people that go there lack transportation and do not have anything but Medicaid which money doctors do not accept.

Went here for a physical and to get a new primary doctor. Met Dr.Lumpkin and he seemed like a nice guy and really seemed to care about my symptoms and said we would start addressing them right away. Sent me for blood work and nerve test. Scheduled appointment for testing and had blood drawn same day..this was about two months ago and so far have not heard one word on blood test results or results of nerve test/ plan of action. Have tried numerous times to contact either the dr or any other dr in the practice for that matter. Today informed the secretary that I had really high blood pressure which the dr was supposed to call in script for me after original visit and was told my call would be labeled very high priority and I would definitely receive a call back today. Still no call and when I called them at 6:30 I was directed to an emergency line and was informed there was nothing they could help me with.... avoid this very unprofessional,don’t really care about anything but collecting your money place. I would send a dog here if you really need help with anything. So needless to say the search for a primary care physician continues and I hope this review will help other to not waste their time with this unprofessionally run money grab....

I don't Recommend anyone to take them selves or their children here at all. They are the worst Clinic ever. They are slow they don't return phone calls nor take anything important as they should

I unfortunately have had to deal with these people for a very ling time now. Every time the experience vary as it is to expect, most experiences has been unpleasant with a few exceptions of some Doctors that have been kind and treated me like a valuable client rather than someone who has to come to a clinic like this due to the medical insurance one carries...Thankfully I now have a better medical insurance and will be looking to move my daughters from this establishment. They are poorly trained it seems. They are mostly rude and look miserable. I'm sorry to the amount of people that will sadly still get mistreated due to the medical insurance they carry.
