DESCRIPTION:

National Farmers Market Week supports farmer's markets throughout the US and always occurs the first full week of August.

Farmer's markets preserve America's rural livelihoods and farmland by providing economical distribution options for smaller farmers and those wishing to test new markets. Furthermore, they stimulate local economies. Growers selling locally create 13 full-time farm operator jobs per $1 million in revenue earned, and farmers that do not sell locally create three jobs per $1 million.

Farmer's markets increase access to nutritious food, particularly in cities where access to fresh food is often limited to wealthy neighborhoods. On top of that, farmer's markets are cost-effective. The middle man is eliminated, and the farmer sells directly to the consumer.

Farmer's markets are increasingly popular with SNAP families (welfare). Fifty-two percent of SNAP households shop at farmer's markets and direct from farmers today than did in 2011.

Perhaps, most importantly, farmer's markets bring the country to their customers. Farmers help educate people about where food comes from and often provide cooking ideas and homemade jams, canned food, and juices. This week is about getting out and getting to know your local farmer's market and benefiting from fresh food at its peak.
