TPIH: Reno County Farmer’s Market

Saturdays now come with more fresh, health, and locally grown food

It's one of my favorite times of the year - the opening of Farmer's Market Season!

For this episode of That Podcast in Hutch, we visit with my friend Kelli Snider-Short. She serves on the board of the Reno County Farmer's Market and is the market's media manager.

Saturday, May 3 is opening day of the market, so it was a perfect time to visit about the benefits of shopping local and supporting small business. And there's nothing more local or small than buying your food from the farmer's market.

As you'll hear Kelli explain, each producer has been directly involved in growing the food you purchase. Whether it's vegetables and leafy greens, honey, meat, bread, or hand-crafted toys, the Farmer's Market is a dynamic place where value is found in a number of ways.

The Farmer’s Market is really more than a place to shop, it’s a community event with music, activities, information, and the opportunity to visit with friends and neighbors.

If you're a regular Farmer's Market shopper, listening to Kelli will get you pumped for opening day. If you're new to the market, she'll help you understand why so many people love spending Saturday mornings at the corner of 2nd and Washington.

The Reno County Farmer’s Market opens at 7:30 a.m. every Saturday through October. To learn more about the Reno County Farmer's Market, visit https://www.rcfmks.com/
