2023 was a good year for the Farmers Market in Junction City. "Our goal for our Farmers Market is to provide access to healthy foods for people who might not be able to get them, "said Susan Jagerson of Live Well Geary County.
Jagerson noted that there are SNAP benefits, the Double Up Food program and the Senior Voucher program. "All of those increased in spending from the previous year.
There is the market that runs from May through October and the Winter Market, which Jagerson observed also went well. "We had a good steady amount of people and the weather cooperated with us."
