NFMW Plans: “We are hoping to host a Farm to Fork Dinner, conduct a t-shirt contest, have live music and giveaways at all three markets during NFMW, (maybe) do a corn on the cob eating contest, and possibly more events. We are working to get a mayoral proclamation, and will be working with local media outlets to blast from the rooftops information about NFMW and our featured status.”- Caleb Smith, Market Manager
The Richmond Farmers Market is a growers-only market in support of the interest of local farmers, producers, and consumers. The purpose of the market is to create a sales venue for area farmers, provide opportunity for consumers to purchase quality local food and farm-grown goods, provide a community gathering place, to promote and stimulate economic development, and create traffic in the Downtown area.
