A farmers market is one of the best ways to bring a community together. It's a place where people can go to buy fresh produce, visit with friends, listen to a life band, and eat delicious market food. Farmers’ markets are usually open air affairs, where shoppers can enjoy the fresh air and sunshine, unlike supermarkets where people exposed to artificial lighting and recycled air. You see a gentleman holding corn on the cob while tapping his foot to the sound of the life band. Ladies are laughing. Children are dancing. Everyone is in good spirit.
Farmers markets help bring life into towns and cities. Once a week, people have an opportunity to come together as community to relax and to enjoy each other’s company. Shoppers have a chance to interact with farmers. When people come every week, they develop trust and friendship with their farmers.
Last but not least, Farmers markets attract business to retailers in the local area.
W H Smith and Debenhams of Winchester both reported a statistic which shows businesses that are located closest to the market locations have profit increase by up to 30% on farmers market days.
Farmers market is an excellent way to bring a local community together, where people can relax, laugh, shop, dance, and simply just enjoy each other's company.
