Top 10 Reasons to Shop and Support our Farmers Market
1. Freshly picked, in season produce is at its peak in flavor and nutrition.
2. Support our community farmers market and join us to grow our scholarship fund, we donate scholarships to local High School Students.
3. It’s a great way to get your kids involved.
Let them pick out something new to try, then they can help prepare a meal or snack using these tips and recipes at Kids in the Kitchen.
4. Supporting your local farmers market strengthens our community.
Meet your local farmers, learn about foods grown in your area and catch up with friends and neighbors while stocking up with local goods.
5. Visit different booths to pick up seasonal fruits and vegetables, as well as local dairy, grain and protein products so you can build your healthy plate.
6. Farmers often have recommendations for preparing their products.
Visit Fruits and Veggies More Matters See recipes that use fresh fruits and vegetables.
7. Cheaper Organic Fruits & Veggies
You can find a variety of fresh, organic produce at more affordable prices than in a supermarket. The advantage at a farmers market is that you can actually talk to the farmer, learn about their methods, and then decide for yourself and in most cases they will allow you to come and visit their farm.
8. Great Variety
There is usually an amazing variety of fruits and veggies at your local farmers market. Each farmer may have his own method for growing tomatoes or peppers. This is something that never happens at a grocery store.
9. Its Healthy!
There’s just no way around it, eating fresh, locally-grown fruits and veggies are great for your health. Buy yourself some local honey, which is sold at most local farmer markets. It has just the right components for allergy prevention in your neck of the woods, not to mention it’s tasty!
10. Most importantly — it’s Fun!
Farmers markets are just plain fun for the whole family. Meeting your local community is an excellent way to feel connected to the world around you, increasing health for body, mind and spirit.
Our Farmers markets easy to find.
