From the Ground vendor applications are starting online this Saturday, April 1st.
From the Ground is a local farmers collective with the aim of providing affordable fresh, organic locally grown food for families on a tight budget.
President of From the Ground Farmers Collective, Jake Ten Harmsel stated “From the Ground Farmers Collective was definitely put together to be a kind of support system for out different producers in the area, and not just farmers but also artisan crafts and bakers and cottage food people that are making y’know things like jam and jellies and different cookies and dried goods and all kinds of that fun stuff too. So we’re of course focused on food, but we want to offer support to anyone who’s going to be involved in our farmers markets in general.”
The grand opening for the 2023 is on Tuesday June 13.
They accept your usual cash, card, or check, plus food assistance programs. They accept SNAP or Bridge Card, Double Up Food Bucks, UP CAP Prescription for Health, Aspirus Prescription for Health, Senior Project Fresh, WIC Project Fresh, and Husky FAN.
