The Northeast Counties Farm Bureau serving Cuyahoga, Erie, Huron, and Lorain counties is excited to highlight one of our valued business members who plays an important role in supporting local agriculture and strengthening our rural communities. These spotlights are our way of recognizing the businesses that invest in Farm Bureau through Group Member sponsorships and help make a positive impact for agriculture across our communities.

This week’s Business Member Spotlight is…….

Located in Cuyahoga County, North Union Farmers Market was founded in 1995 by Donita Anderson. With her leadership, the nonprofit now supports more than 90 farmers and 100 local artisans each year for more than 30 years. The market works to strengthen regional agriculture, support small farm businesses, and build vibrant community gathering spaces centered around local food.

Operating multiple year-round farmers markets providing local farmers and food producers with direct-to-consumer sales opportunities, the markets feature locally grown fruits and vegetables, meats, dairy products, eggs, baked goods, honey, flowers, value-added foods, and handcrafted products from Ohio farmers and small businesses. In addition, North Union Farmers Market administers food access programs including SNAP/EBT, Produce Perks, WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program, and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition benefits to help make locally grown food more accessible to all members of the community.

The current market season features eight weekly market locations throughout northeast Ohio and two winter markets. North Union also hosts educational programming, live music, community events, and the annual Cleveland Garlic Festival, which is North Union Farmers Market’s largest fundraising event supporting local farms and food access initiatives.
