In a remarkable community effort, the FoodWISe Gleaning Program at the Watertown Farmers Market has collected and donated 582 pounds of fresh, locally grown produce to The Bread Basket, Watertown’s community food pantry, all within five weeks. This initiative reflects the town’s commitment to supporting those in need through local collaboration.

As spring unfolds, there’s nothing quite like the return of fresh, locally grown produce to invigorate our kitchens—starting with these crunchy carrot lettuce wraps. After a long winter, this vibrant dish embodies the season’s renewal and the simple joy of supporting local farmers.
