A farmers? market is a public and recurring assembly of farmers and local artisans selling directly to consumers. Vendors sell fresh products such as vegetables, fruits, cheeses, meats, mushrooms, bread and eggs as well as prepared food, beverages, preserves, herbal tinctures, crafts and other goods that they produce and make locally. Many farmers' markets also provide local entertainment such as live music, educational workshops, children's activities, SNAP programs and much more! Farmers? markets facilitate personal connections and bonds of mutual benefits between farmers, shoppers, and communities.
