WEBINAR: SMART SHOPPING AT YOUR LOCAL FARMER’S MARKET – JULY 9; HR Faculty Staff News; June 22, 2020

There are more than 8,700 farmers’ markets registered in USDA’s National Farmers Market Directory. Consequently, buying local has become an incredibly popular trend, and quite possibly, for good reason.
