From Head to Toe at Murray’s

Now, with the addition of Peter Beaton Hats in their Ladies’ Department, they can dress you from head to toe.

They are an iconic must-have item and go perfectly with Nantucket Reds of course,” Lauren Murray commented.
Murray’s has long offered hats: Nantucket RedsTM caps and hats by Barbour, Helen Kaminski, Smathers & Branson, and other designers.

Four This Year from the Farm!
Bartlett’s Farm plays a part in everyone’s summer on Nantucket. It just wouldn’t be the same without their prized tomatoes, sweet summer corn, and island- grown produce of every variety. This year they’re making it even easier to get their homegrown goodness to your table.
For close to two centuries, the Farm has been making the trip to Main Street with a truck-full of flavor. The tradition began around 1852, and today flowers and produce are still picked same day to ensure they’re at the peak of freshness. In an improvement upon that terrific tradition, two more produce trucks have been added around the island. You can now secure the freshest food on Nantucket at four locations: find them through Labor Day Monday-Saturday from 8am to 1pm at their new location on the corner of Old South & Ironwood roads, Madaket Center at Millie’s Market, ‘Sconset Center, and at their original spot downtown on Main Street. And, of course, Bartlett’s Farm Market is open daily from 7 am.
Bartlett’s Farm is a family operation with more than 100 acres of open fields for growing produce and flowers. In the last 10 years, they have transitioned more than 30 acres to certified organic to meet the growing damand. Their Garden Center and market is a must visit, with everything you need create and maintain your home, inside and out.
