Buy Fresh Give Fresh At Madison Farmers Market

The Madison Farmers Market, in partnership with Drew University, will run the Buy Fresh/Give Fresh program every week during the 2014 season. Buy Fresh/Give Fresh is an initiative to bring farm fresh produce to soup kitchen recipients in Morris County.

Every week this season, shoppers will have the opportunity to buy produce at the market and drop it off in the Buy Fresh/Give Fresh wagon right in the middle of the market. At the end of the day all the produce is picked up by Madison volunteers and taken to local soup kitchen and food pantry, Faith Kitchen in Dover.

Volunteers are needed. Any individuals, businesses, church groups, scout troops or families who would like to help transport the Farmers Market produce to Dover, contact Barbara Hughes at Farmersmarket@rosenet.org. Contact the DDC at 973-937-8084.
