Organization Overview
MIFMA was established in 2006 as a statewide association to promote local food consumption in Michigan by connecting more farmers to consumers through farmers markets. The number of farmers markets in Michigan has grown from around 90 in 2001 to nearly 300 in 2023. This growth makes our work more important than ever.
Mission: MIFMA places equity at the forefront of supporting the viability of community-driven marketplaces so that they can connect ALL consumers to local farms and businesses.
Vision: Community-driven marketplaces are pillars of thriving communities where everyone has equitable access to and feels connected to products grown and produced in Michigan.
