We Leverage Farmers Markets as a force for building healthy communities.
Our Market Communities
OUR PROGRAMS
Cooking Together
We address physical and psychological barriers to food access by teaching hands-on, kid-friendly cooking classes paired with produce donations! Families leave with vegetables and the confidence to cook with them!
Community
Compost Hubs
Bring your food scraps to one of our community compost hubs and help us build soil, not landfills!
Good Cooks!
A space in the market to ask cooking questions, swap recipes, and discover new fruits and vegetables! Volunteers needed at all of our farmers’ markets!
Kids Zones!
Research indicates that exposure to whole, uncut fruits and vegetables demystifies them and even makes kids want to eat them. In our Kids Zones, play in the vicinity of fruits and vegetables, building happy farmers’ market memories (without being asked to “just try” anything).
Educational Programs
We host field trips, give behind-the-scenes market tours, bring farmers into classrooms, and love to lectures on local campuses!
Market
Gleaning
We partner with community gleaners to recover unsellable (but still delicious) food and deliver it to neighbors in need!
