We are an Ohio non-profit cooperative with an all-volunteer board of directors (# 8 board members, 2024 President is Dennis Mosny) and the managers are David Persinger (15th year) and Gwen Laurens.

The market accepts cash, credit/debit, SNAP (aka food stamps) including a SNAP purchase benefit matching program (Produce Perks), $1 for $1 up to $25 each day & these are only good for vegetables, fruits, and plants that produce food. We take the WIC farmers market coupons as well as the Senior Farmers market coupons. We participate in ADENA’s Fresh Food Rx program, for fruits and vegetables only, the TANF fruit & vegetable program, the Fayette Co Employee benefit coupons given to those participating in their “health program (administered by the Commissioner’s office), and lastly but not the least of which we participate in is the Fayette County Farm Bureau’s program of giving all Fayette Co Farm Bureau members a $5 coupon at each market they attend (a $120 member benefit…which will pay for your membership).
