Farmers’ markets contribute to livable communities

Farmers’ markets are undergoing a renaissance of sorts. Why? Markets meet certain community needs that had been swept aside in pursuit of a “modern” food distribution system. Farmers’ markets:

• Educate consumers about how their food is grown and processed.
• Support small family farmers, whose continued existence depends on direct marketing opportunities, and related small-scale economic activity.
• Protect air quality and the environment by shortening the distance food travels from farm to consumer and encouraging sustainable agriculture practices.
• Create a community activity that helps revitalize downtowns, riverfronts and other community resources.
