We pride ourselves in offering ONLY Kansas Grown or produced products; unlike many other markets, our vendors do not import any produce from out-of-state. This allows us to offer you the freshest, most nutritious seasonal fruits and vegetables possible. Unlike buying produce from large retailers, shopping at our markets allows you to meet and build friendships with the actual farmers who grow your food!
What is a LOCAVORE?
A "Locavore" is someone who enjoys eating a seasonal diet based on vegetables, fruits, dairy products, eggs, and meats that are grown and produced LOCALLY.
Eating a "Locavore" diet means fresher food, less spoilage & waste, shorter travel time from farm to table, a smaller carbon footprint, showing support for small family businesses, and strengthening your local economy!
Produce is seasonal (unless you find a farm with a greenhouse); so it's important to be aware of what foods are in season, and what might not be available just yet.
