If you’re interested in state efforts to develop an indoor year-round farmers market near the site of historic Hay Market, you’ll want to listen to the report filed this morning by WBUR’s Delores Handy of Morning Edition.

Delores reports on the most recent steps towards realizing the market and speaks with a representative group of ‘stakeholders’ — a third-generation Hay Market vendor, a resident of Beacon Hill and Commissioner of Agricultural Resources Scott Soares.

The state is currently seeking proposals from potential developers and operators of the new public market, and the hope is for the market to open in approximately a year.

Listen to the full report.
