Eating Well magazine has recognized Tucson’s Santa Cruz River Farmers’ Market as one of “America’s Top 10 Farmers’ Markets.” http://www.tucsoncitizen.com/daily/frontpage/57651.php

Thanks to Kathyrn Christensen, regular customer and AmeriCorps VISTA member at United Way, for nominating the Santa Cruz River Farmers’ Market for the Golden Grocer Hunger Champion Award:

“The Santa Cruz River Farmers’ Market is one of Tucson’s gems, benefitting low-income and higher-income Tucsonans alike!  All the different vendors are informed about the shopping system, and are sensitive in accepting food stamp benefits as payment just the way they accept cash payments.   The Santa Cruz River Farmers’ Market is worthy of the Golden Grocer Hunger Champion award because of its integrated appeal to both low-income and higher-income customers, shopping accessibility for food stamp recipients, and nutrition education.”–Thanks Kathryn!

Locally grown fruits and vegetables, plants, flowers, canned goods, honey,
baked goods, eggs, gourds,herbal remedies, and more.
