Envision the future of local food in Columbia….

Welcome to our vision for the Columbia Farmers Market and its community. Building a permanent home for the Market will help support our local family farmers and small businesses while providing better access to fresh food and educational opportunities to our community in Columbia and beyond. Explore this website to learn more about the project, its benefits, and its goals.

Sustainable Farms & Communities (SF&C) is a non-profit group of citizens and farmers based in Columbia, Missouri. We are currently working in partnership with government, educational institutions, not-for-profit organizations, businesses, and individuals to build a permanent, self-sufficient, year-round pavilion to house the Columbia Farmers’ Market. This project is intended to help ensure a bright future for the Market, help develop a safe, healthy local food supply, foster entrepreneurship that builds the local economy, and build a stronger community and environment for healthy living.
