What brings people to farmers markets? Fresh food, high-quality products, supporting local farmers—and having a little fun along the way. 🍅🥕🌽

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.
