Summer is in full swing,
and the produce is abundant. 
Check out your local Farmers Markets!

Fremont Local Foods is proud to announce that our Wyoming First Lady, Jennie Gordon, will be attending the Riverton Wednesday Farmers Market this coming week, July 15, in conjunction with her Wyoming Hunger Initiative.  Mrs. Gordon will get a great first-hand experience at a vibrant local farmers market, where we are adding vendors every week, and showing off some of the best of Fremont County's
local produce.  Come on out and help us give her a wonderful time! 

Summer is here, and we're starting to see abundant fresh garden vegetables showing up at our Fremont County Farmers Markets!    Our vendors are working hard to provide you with local fresh food for your tables.  You can find just about anything you need to feed your families at our local markets.  There are dairy products, meats, cheeses, eggs, delightful baked goodies, and fine handcrafted items galore, food trucks to provide your dinner enjoyment, and lots of folks out having a great time!  Check out your nearest farmers market -  shop locally, get some sunshine and fresh air, and see what Fremont Local Foods are all about!

​Why buy local food?

​

• You’ll get exceptional taste and freshness.  
  Local food is fresher and tastes better than food shipped long distances from other states or countries.  Local farmers can offer produce varieties bred for taste and freshness rather than for shipping and shelf life.
  
  
• You’ll strengthen your local economy. 
  Buying local food keeps your dollars circulating in your community.  Getting to know the farmers who grow your food builds relationships based on understanding and trust, the foundation of strong communities.
  
  
• You’ll safeguard your family’s health.
  Knowing where your food comes from and where it is grown enables you to choose safe food from farmers who avoid or reduce their use of potentially harmful chemicals, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, or genetically modified seed.  Buy food from local farmers you trust.
  
  
• You’ll support endangered family farms. 
  There’s never been a more critical time to support your farming neighbors.  With each local food purchase, you ensure that more of your money spent on food goes to the farmer.
  
  
• You’ll protect the environment. 
  Local food doesn’t have to travel far.  This reduces carbon dioxide emissions and packaging materials.
