Farmers Markets Don’t Just Happen…
This year, thanks to your support, AIM’s markets collectively generated an astounding $52 million in revenue for our network of 436 small and midsize California farmers, food makers, and artisans.
By shopping AIM’s certified farmers markets, your food dollars stay in California, in the hands of your favorite farmers, supporting a growing network of small businesses and agricultural enterprises that are the heart of a sustainable local food system.
Will you amplify AIM’s 2024 successes and impacts by contributing to our goal of $50,000 by December 31st so we can tackle the challenges of small farm loss, climate change, and local food access for all in 2025?
