Just as important, we have the joy of seeing and spending time with friends and neighbors in a welcoming setting. By shopping farmers’ markets, we support the health of our families, the financial viability of farmers, and the health of our local economies. Community farmers’ markets provide outstanding access to healthy, fresh-from-the-farm food and an unparalleled opportunity to “know your farmer know your food.” Many markets also feature good-food artisans and entrepreneurs, too. For those of us who live for local food, farmers’ market season is the best time of year.
