Farmers Markets
Are Essential.
The Farmers Market Coalition strengthens farmers markets
for the benefit of farmers, consumers, and communities.
What We Do
CONNECT
FMC provides a network of support to market managers, vendors and customers, where ideas and issues are discussed, and best practices are shared. We work closely with regional leaders to build the capacity of state farmers market networks and associations.
EDUCATE
FMC equips market managers and farmers with the tools necessary to run successful markets, while also supporting research that promotes widespread understanding of the impact of farmers markets. Information is shared through webinars, newsletters, and our Resource Library.
ADVOCATE
While market organizers and farmers are busy growing healthy food for their communities, FMC gives farmers markets a voice in public policies that impact our food system. We ensure that the interests of local producers are understood and represented at state and federal levels.
