Farmers' markets serve as integral links between urban, suburban, and rural communities, affording farmers and their consumers the opportunity to interact. The popularity of farmers' markets continues to rise, as more and more consumers discover the joys of shopping for unique ingredients sold directly from the farm, and the pleasure of buying familiar products in their freshest possible state.
