Mission:

Our Mission is to support local producers distributing food & agricultural goods by providing experiences that foster the joy of eating local.

the FARMER’S MARKET must be:

1. GOOD FOR THE FARMER

We strive to keep our market fees low or free in order to aid vendors in the distribution of their products. We also prioritize investing in ways to increase customer traffic in order to create more demand for locally produced goods. Whether a new vendor or a seasoned one, LCFSI will always put producers first in order to build a healthy, sustainable, and local food system.

2. GOOD FOR THE CONSUMER

We maintain the integrity of the Market by monitoring our vendor offerings closely to ensure that customers are getting the highest quality and genuinely locally produced products. Our consumers have the chance to live life with a collection of foods unique to this location and season, and we are proud of it!

3. GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITY

We prioritize community education about sustainable local food systems and healthy eating via farm tours, cooking demonstrations, and programs. We believe our future depends upon our ability to improve the resilience of our food system, and make nutrient-dense food more accessible to at-risk populations.

Our markets go beyond your typical shopping experience. We work together with our community partners to create a larger impact in our local food system, by supporting our producers and keeping our community connected.

the people who make it go.

As one might imagine, non-profit work is for the love of the game. We’ve got some amazingly talented and dedicated people on our staff which allows us to realize our vision. Take some time to get to know our team. These people care a whole heck of a lot about connecting you to fresh, local food produced by your neighbors.

We like ‘em. We’re sure you will too.
