About the Market
Background
The Lobo Growers’ Market serves as a bridge between the region’s agricultural heritage and the university community. Open seasonally from September to October, it has established itself as a hub for local farmers and producers to showcase their goods, fostering a sense of community and connection to the land.
Practices
The market emphasizes sustainable growing practices, encouraging local farmers and producers to adopt methods that support long-term ecological balance and soil health. This focus on sustainability ensures that the produce and goods available are not only fresh and local but also grown with an eye towards preserving the environment.
The Rest
The market is not just a place to buy fresh produce; it is also a venue for education and community engagement. Visitors can learn about healthy living, participate in workshops, and enjoy a vibrant atmosphere that celebrates local agriculture and its importance to the community.
