Our Programs
Our market hosts Nourish Kids programming every 4th Sunday of the month in partnership with Nourish Knoxville.
Nourish Kids provides a fun opportunity for children to engage in the local food system through conversations with farmers, educational games and demonstrations, and exposure to new fruits and vegetables. Kids crate positive associations with vegetables, build relationships with farmers, develop budgeting skills, and begin to influence their local economy.
In normal times, children attend the market on a Kids Club day, sample a vegetable, do an activity provided by a nonprofit partner, and receive $5 in Produce Bucks to spend at the market.
In the COVID-19 era, a parent can attend the market to pick up produce bucks for their children and a take-home activity kit and produce sample.
