ROCKPORT — A local organization is continuing a program that enables town children to purchase produce and learn about the value of vegetables.
The Power of Produce Club (POP Club) provides $5 each week to children, ages 4-12, to purchase fruits, vegetables and food-producing plants at the Rockport Farmers Market.
