Winter Garden Farmers Market noticed in American Farmland Trust’s Farmers Market Celebration

Today kicks off the American Farmland Trust’s Farmers Market Celebration, which seeks to raise awareness about farmers markets and supporting family farmers. 

As part of the celebration, people around the nation are encouraged to go to the celebration’s website and review their local farmers markets. 

Locally, the Winter Garden Farmers Market made the cut on the website.

Local voters have already expressed their enthusiasm for the market. Currently, the Winter Garden Farmers Market is ranked No. 1 nationwide for People’s Choice, according to the Celebration’s website. 

The competition has just begun and runs through Sept. 21, so fans of the market still have time to log on and make their recommendations. Voters can submit feedback on how the market excels in being a pillar of the community, offers healthy food for all, focuses on farmers and champions the environment.
