Local Food Resources
We're here to help you understand the processes of getting started with gardening, selling local foods/products, raising livestock, and implementing sustainable agricultural practices to ensure long-term environmental health and productivity.
Farmers Markets
Each of us is a cultivator with the ability to make our town thrive, and one of our most powerful roots is in our farmers market. Whether it’s a pickup loaded with corn or tents full of jams and jewelry, our market only grows if we go. When it grows, so does our economy, our companionship and our community.
