The 2023 America’s Farmer’s Market Celebration has begun. The celebration ranks the top farmer’s markets in the United States by public vote. Both the Ottawa Farmer’s Market and the Garnett Farmer’s Market are listed on the voting site. You can not only vote, but post a review for the market. On the site you can learn valuable information about farms and how they supply the Nation with food, as well as smaller farmers that serve area farmer’s markets. Also, there are tips and trick on navigating a market and you can register for a free bumper sticker that says “no farms, no food” to show your appreciation and support of America’s farmers and ranchers.

Last year, the Kansas market that received the most votes was the Overland Park Market. Let’s get the votes coming in for our area markets. You can vote everyday at “markets dot farmland dot org”markets.farmland.org” . Oh, and by the way, the Ottawa Farmer’s Market will be open this afternoon from 4:00 to 6:00 in the Orscheln’s parking lot. Visit and check out all the incredible products available. Fresh eggs, breads, flowers, locally produced honey, garden plants, kettle corn, baked goods, fresh produce, meats and much more.
