Mission:
We want to make a significant contribution to the long-term health of the region and model how a farmers' market can serve community wellness in multi-faceted ways. Specifically, our vision is:
- To increase community accessibility to healthy, locally grown foods
- To support local farmers engaged in sustainable practices by creating a sustainable venue for the sale of their goods;
- To establish opportunities for community wellness partnerships, such as health screenings, public education about prevention, and study of health interventions
- To build a community space for interaction among employees and students of the Medical Center and College of Medicine as well as people from surrounding neighborhoods and towns;
- To pay homage to the agricultural heritage of the land surrounding the Medical Center and College of Medicine.
