“The Power of Data”

Washington State Farmers Market Association is a good 20 years older than MFMA, has a larger budget built on larger dues from their farmers markets, and has gathered critical data for many years. Data that most likely played a role in WSFMA securing $2.1M in grants for 130 farmers’ markets in Washington State in 2021 from their state government. WSFMA executive director Colleen Donovan will share lessons learned.

MFMA provides services, programs, and leadership that support and promote farmers' markets

across Minnesota and our Tribal Nations.

We envision a community of vibrant, profitable, and professionally managed Minnesota farmers’ markets that:

Cultivates, nourishes, and inspires a vibrant local foods community;

provides accessibility to all to local farm fresh foods;

allows local food producers to thrive and grow.
