Have you rocked the vote yet and supported Staunton/Augusta Farmers Market in the American Farmland Trust national competition? With 30 acres of farmland being lost in Virginia every day, supporting our local farmers is now more important than ever. In the 10 county Shenandoah Valley region consumers spend $1.2 billion buying food each year, but only $4.3 million of food is sold by farmers directly to consumers. We have the buying power to re-shape the local economy. Learn more here.

Vote today for the Staunton/Augusta Farmers Market and eat local every day.
