By Heather Manzo, Extension Educator, Allegheny County. If the proper assets are in
place a farmers market can create activity in building local economies and
leveraging assets for mainstream redevelopment projects, enhancing
relationships between business, increasing access to fresh food, and
making social services more visible to community members.
Penn State Extension partnered with Sustainable Pittsburgh and the Local Government Academy to deliver this program to help Community / Economic Development organizations, municipal leaders and staff, and farmers market managers decide how a well managed market can benefit any community.
