The event will be held at the Acushnet Senior Community Center, 59 1/2 South Main Street.

Townwide Yard Sale

Last year a group of residents organized a townwide yard sale on the same weekend that the Apple-Peach Festival would have been held. Traditionally, houses on Main Street have held yard sales on festival weekend to take advantage of the increased traffic. The festival was canceled last year due to the pandemic. This year, the organizers decided to have the same event during the festival. 

To be on the list, you’ll have to join the All Things Acushnet page on Facbook and use the sign-up form.

The form will be used to collect the addresses and types of items of those who wish to participate. 

On September 5th (one week before the sale), The list will be curated, starting from North of town to South, and all will be posted  to the All Things Acushnet group. Visit https://forms.gle/fQuGjzRnuCtxBwJf7 to sign up.
