Our mission is simple: to create a connection between local, small-scale organic farms and public schools in an effort to create sustainable lunch programs throughout each school year. By providing our children with better lunch options, we are not only giving them a source of nutrition, but also an education on healthy eating habits for the future. School lunches don’t have to be slop on a lunch tray, nor should they.
The Northwood Area Farmers Market Association was founded in 2008 to bring fresh locally produced and grown food and value added products from local businesses to the community. We hope to help local businesses market their products and promote sustainable agriculture and economic growth. Market dates and hours: Every Tuesday from 3-6 pm from mid-May to early October.
