#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.

This farmers market is huge! A wide assortment of both growers and culinary artisans, plus seasonal crafts. It used to include pony rides for the children but the Animal Rights groups sadly put an end to that sweet activity.
In 2018, the American Farmland Trust came out with a study that said we lose ~175 acres of farmland every hour in this country. Marin has preserved its agricultural roots despite its proximity to San Francisco and the pressure to develop – visit this market to find many Marin farmers, ranchers, and dairies represented and celebrate local family farms and the healthy environment and bounty that result!
