OFMA serves as the primary gathering place for quantitative and qualitative data on the state of farmers markets in Oregon. This data allows us to understand what markets are dealing with across the state, how they are recovering from the pandemic, and what resources we can work for in our advocacy.
Our annual findings presentations answer the three big questions we’re asked: how many farmers markets, vendors, and customers there are in Oregon. But dig deeper and don’t miss the data on other topics, for example: typical stall fees, SNAP dollars spent at markets, employment & wage statistics, DEI work, market budgets & fundraising, challenges and celebrations.
