Abstract

This guide was developed collaboratively by food access experts, farmers market managers with direct experience starting and operating farmers market on military installations, Healthy Base Initiative, and military program implementation specialists. The goal is to help installations improve healthy food options and build effective community partnerships that improve combat readiness and advance the overall health of the military community. Extensive research and analysis were conducted in partnership with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Department of Defense (DoD) to develop this resource. This included surveying best practices from farmers markets in the continental United States, consulting subject matter experts who collaborated to author the guide, and incorporating best practices and lessons from farmers markets operating on military installations during the spring, summer, and fall of 2014.
