Running out of fresh produce might be enough of a reason to head to a local farmer’s market. It might already be a part of the routine. However, shoppers tend to stick to the same places.
AgConnect, a public-private partnership between the Chester County Economic Development Council and Chester County, wants to incentivize curiosity one stamp at a time.
Enter the Chester County Farmers Market Trail map. It’s somewhat of a game. Residents interested in participating can grab a map that highlights 10 farmer’s markets throughout the county.
Maps can be found at participating farmers markets, the AgConnect website and other locations around the county. Upon visiting a farmer’s mark on the map, participants will receive a stamp.
“For me personally, I have little kids,” said Jordan Peek, project manager of AgConnect. “We’re always looking for something to do and a way to spend time outside. And so it really kind of is the perfect marriage of those things.”
