Abstract
A farmers market has operated for many years in Austin, even though it has changed locations, sizes, and organizational structure numerous times over the years. Austin residents identify many positive attributes of the farmers market, including access to local foods and being able to support local farmers and businesses. However, there is opportunity to expand the size of facilities, variety of offerings, and diversity of activities. Survey results indicate that respondents would like to see a greater variety of products and vendors, different or more operating hours, and entertainment and educational opportunities. This document outlines process and outcomes of an effort that sought to engage citizens and stakeholders in the community of Austin to
help explore, envision, and shape the possibilities of what a larger farmers market development could become.
