°µÍø½ûÇø has partnered with Haymaker Farmers' Market to bring a farmer's market to the Kent campus.  The °µÍø½ûÇø Farmers' Market provides students with opportunities to learn about the local farming community, select fresh produce and connect with the broader Kent community in addition to creating a community around food with a warm, friendly and fun environment. The market will include selling crafts (photography, prints, glass, fiber) and educational workshops related to food as well as performances (music, dance, theater).  

The °µÍø½ûÇø Farmers' Market is a perfect example of programming that exposes the university community to nutritious local foods, products, farms and agriculture. The collaborative project aligns perfectly with the mission of the °µÍø½ûÇø of Well-being and highlights the new eight dimensions of well-being framework promoted on our campus.
