Sustaining farmers markets in low-income, urban areas : exploring farmer participation and market development

Abstract

dc:description

"The objective of this study is to explore three complementary research questions. First, what motivates farmers to participate in farmers markets in low-income, urban areas? Second, what is the process of development for small, early-stage farmers markets in these communities? Third, what are farmers' attitudes regarding Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) programs in place at these farmers markets?"--From abstract.
