New Farmers Join Upcoming Farmers Market

1. The success of the first Milford Farmers Market has resulted in several new applications that have been approved by the Board of Health. The 6-acre Pumpkin Farm, based in Millis, will be selling vegetables at the next market, scheduled for Saturday. According to its site, the Pumpkin Farm is owned by Jason and Nicole Lobisser. "We operate using sustainable farming practices and use no synthetic fertilizer, pesticide, herbicide or fungicide." Two additional vegetable farmers also are expected at the next market.

2. Boston Magazine has released its list of the best school systems in Greater Boston. Milford came in 114th of 147 districts examined in the metro region. The top town for schools? Dover.
