Wesleyan Farmers' Market

Market Master: Sara Rood-Ojalvo (wesleyanfarmersmarket@gmail.com)

The Wesleyan Farmers' Market is a student-run initiative committed to supporting local agriculture, providing fresh, affordable, nutritious food, and building community between the students faculty and staff of Wesleyan University, and the citizens in Connecticut. We have markets from September to May on the first and third Wednesday of every month. In the fall and spring we hold the markets in the Usdan Courtyard and during the winter they are in Fayerweather. Students do everything from helping set up and clean up, to staffing an info table, to advertising, to running the finances, and to arranging for elementary school classes to come on field trips to the market. We welcome new ideas and new people into our group.
