Local governments can promote access to fresh produce, support local farmers, create community gathering places, and revitalize neighborhoods by supporting farmers markets. This guide provides an overview of farmers market policy issues and community tested best practices. It also features a set of complementary model land use policies for comprehensive plans and zoning ordinances. This guide is for local government staff (planners, public health departments, etc.), elected officials, farmers market managers, food policy councils, and other stakeholders, on practical guidance and tools that communities can customize to create more farmers market opportunities and to ensure their long-term viability.
