| Looking for a Farmers Market near you?
What is a Farmers' Market? A Farmers' Market is one in which farmers, growers or producers from a defined local area are present in person to sell their own produce, direct to the public. All products sold should have been grown, reared, caught, brewed, pickled, baked, smoked or processed by the grower or producer.
Farmers Market Facts: Farmers markets, now an integral part in the urban/farm linkage, have continued to rise in popularity, mostly due to the growing consumer interest in obtaining fresh products directly from the farm. The number of farmers markets in the United States has grown dramatically, increasing 63 percent from 1994 to 2000. According to the 2000 National Farmers Market Directory, there are over 2,800 farmers markets operating in the United States. Find a Farmers Market near you! |
