Farmers Market

Author: Janey Cline

Planning Unit: KSU Administration

Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Plan of Work: Developing Healthy Lifestyles

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

Diversification of Hart County Agriculture has been identified as a major area for program efforts. Extension has worked for many years to help producers identify and take advantage of opportunities in diversified agricultural enterprises. We have assisted growers in developing markets for vegetable crops and have done extensive work in vegetable production. The local Farmers Market has been the main focus of the diversification efforts for Janey Cline, Family and Consumer Sciences agent. Cline has worked with farmers to not only diversify their vegetable production but also their value added products. As a result the 2021 market increased sales, added vendors and increased the amount of days the market remained open.
