Happy Farmers Market Appreciation Week! We are so thankful to be a part of your weekly routine. Thanks for shopping local at the Community Farmers Market and supporting local farmers!
Farmers Markets are an important feature of our local food system and our towns. "Farmers markets are the hearts of many towns and cities; they're the new town square." said USDA AMS Administrator, Anne Alonzo in a recent press conference, "Local food topped $11.7 billion last year." The USDA see this as a growing sector and have played an important role in making farmers markets more accessible to all people. "A big priority of USDA is increasing SNAP acceptance at farmers markets." We proudly accept LINK cards at the market information table. Stop by the market information table this week to learn more about our SNAP programs at the market!
