Celebrating National Farmers Market Week with you ALL has been a fantastic experience! This past week was a powerful reminder of how much goes into making our markets thrive. They don't just happen; they are built and sustained by dedicated individuals.

We want to extend a special thank you to everyone who supports our mission. From the market operators working tirelessly behind the scenes to the farmers earning fair prices for their harvest, and to all of you, our community, who fill our markets with energy and life—your support is what strengthens our markets for the benefit of farmers, consumers, and communities.

Your participation during National Farmers Market Week helps us work toward our "triple bottom line": helping farmers earn a real income, providing access to fresh food, and creating welcoming community spaces for everyone. Thank you for being a part of this vital effort.

A new Forbes article by regional food systems expert Dawn Thilmany McFadden highlights a national study conducted by Farmers Market Coalition and the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

Among more than 5,100 respondents, 80% reported visiting a farmers market at least once a year. The study also found that most attendees felt farmers markets helped them eat healthier—and that markets offer opportunities to socialize, learn and connect beyond shopping.

This National Farmers Market Week, we’re celebrating the many ways farmers markets nourish people, support farmers and strengthen communities.
