Resources
Farmers markets don’t run themselves. Market managers play a pivotal and oftentimes unseen role in making sure markets run smoothly for farmers and customers. In the age of coronavirus, market managers have had to take on even more to ensure everyone’s safety and that markets are adhering to local and state public safety recommendations.
To help market managers connect with proven resources, we’ve partnered with our friends at the Farmers Market Coalition and InTents Farmers Market Pros.
