About this organization
Mission
To advance farmers markets to create a thriving marketplace for local food and farm products.
About
Hoophouses for Health is designed to increase access to fresh, local fruits and vegetables for vulnerable families while at the same time expanding the season extension capacity of Michigan farmers. The program provides participating farmers with funding to build new hoophouses on their farm. Farmers accept hoophouses for health incentives for produce from participating families at a farmers market or provide produce to qualifying schools. In 2018, 54 farmers and 9 farmers markets participated in the program and $125,452 in local food was distributed to families and young children in Michigan via farmers markets, schools and childcare centers. MIFMA also transitioned all participating markets to an electronic market card redemption system in 2018.
