How does our Certified Farmer's Markets help our youth?
Farmers markets can significantly impact the health of youth by providing access to locally grown produce. By purchasing fruits and vegetables from farmers markets, youth can enjoy fresh, nutritious foods that are often free from the preservatives and additives found in processed foods. Additionally, farmers markets often offer a wide variety of produce, exposing youth to different flavors and encouraging them to try new foods, which can help expand their palate and promote healthier eating habits. Furthermore, farmers markets can serve as educational platforms, where youth can learn about the benefits of eating locally grown foods, the importance of supporting local farmers, and the environmental impact of food production and distribution. This educational component can help empower youth to make informed choices about their diet and lifestyle, leading to improved overall health and well-being. Overall, farmers markets play a crucial role in promoting the health and well-being of youth by providing access to fresh, nutritious foods, fostering a deeper understanding of food systems, and encouraging healthier eating habits. Our local farmers contribute to our foster youth programs and also to our local medical centers as well. If you have a similar servant's heart and would like to participate as a vendor at one of our local Certified Farmer's Market, please send an inquiry to cfm@supportingarms.org for more information! |
