#OnMyFork
The most powerful tool we have to protect farmland is our fork.
When you shop at your local farmers market, you help family farmers thrive. What you put on your fork matters.

I’ve gone to this market for 62 years now. Where else am I able to find wholesome mostly organic foods under one roof. Local produce is grown by local farmers, Amish and Mennonites. The entire town and surroundings are so proud of our unique market house and the mix of vendors. I especially like Kauffman’s apples and ciders. My first encounter of the market was with my Mother when we would take the bus downtown, many times, for special treats. It holds a special place on my heart and most everyone who visits.
