SUMMARY:Midtown Farmers Market | Market Plaza – 2225 East Lake Street\, Minneapolis
DESCRIPTION:In 2003\, CNO began the Midtown Farmers Market with the help of numerous community partners and volunteers. Our market strives to value community\, equitable access\, alongside local cooperation\, and collaboration. Each year an estimated 55\,000 people visit the market\, and in 2006\, we became the first farmers market to accept SNAP-EBT in Minnesota! \nThe Midtown Farmers Market seeks to create a vibrant forum in South Minneapolis that connects community residents and nearby rural food producers in a mutually beneficial economic and cultural exchange.
