Farmers Market Of The Ozarks Inc

The Foodie Pack Program was created as a community awareness program to provide business with bags of produce from local farmers at the farmers market. Produce was purchased from vendors at wholesale and the market staff created bags based on seasonal availability of products and resold the bags to customers. The market used this as a consumer awareness promotion of how purchasing locally at the farmers market is fun, easy and affordable.

The market puts on various educational events related to agriculture and growing to educate consumers about local food and nutrition. In addition, market members are involved in local food collaberative food and outreach initiatives.
