Michigan Farmer's Market Association


 

What's Happening?

Furthering the efforts to make every day an Earth Day, MIFMA participated in the Green Street Fair in Plymouth, Michigan, which welcomed 125,000 visitors to learn about all things “green.” 

MIFMA Members Aileen Cowan, Lisa Hale, “Cousin Don” Hobson, Dan Keane, Laurajeanne Kehn, Sher Watkins and Dietrich Bronner staffed the MIFMA booth, promoting farmers markets, “fielding” questions about organic farmers and CSAs and encouraging consumers to visit their Market.  Thank-you to all these volunteers!  We hope we encouraged a few visitors to join MIFMA as members, and we hope you and your market join MIFMA if you aren’t already a member, to help move farmers markets forward. Join MIFMA today!
