Farmers Market Network

Through the Rural Farmers Market Network, we aim to bolster farmers markets throughout the Gorge.

We work collaboratively with regional market managers to:

• Increase low-income food access programs
• Provide technical assistance and resource sharing opportunities for market managers
• Cooperatively promote farmers markets, seasonal foods and more
• Aggregate sales data to track market growth Gorge-wide
• Translate marketing materials and vendor application packets
• Collaborate on vendor, musician, and volunteer recruitment
• Share best practices, activity outlines, and inspiring stories for newsletters
• Share resources like market rules, safety guidelines, and market manager job descriptions
• Attend regional conferences together
