Farmers Markets are
localities where farmers, family members and hired helpers come to sell
farm fresh products. They may be state, city or community operated.
Each of these markets will have their own set of rules providing standards
for both farmers and consumers to assure fresh, local, quality produce
is available.
Farmers markets provide
an opportunity for growers to sell directly to consumers, chefs, food purveyors
and food designers. They are a place of business as well as a location
for building community, allowing consumers and farmers to become more closely
connected. Spending money at farmers markets supports a local economy and
those involved in farming.
