The Minnesota Department of Ag is giving out funding to twenty-nine farmers’ markets across the state.
Communications Specialist Nikki Warner says Minnesota has a strong farmers’ market culture, and they want to support that…
“We are at just about 400 farmers markets across the state. Between higher food costs at the grocery store, tariffs on imports I think more folks are looking to keep their dollars in the local economy as much as possible.”
The Farmers’ Market Nutrition Assistance program is supported by one-time state legislative funding.
