Farmer Institute of Tallahassee

Farmer Institute of Tallahassee FMAP

FIT is eager to announce a new program to create deeper connections between our farmer markets and the communities where they're located! Farmer Market Ambassadors will provide an important bridge between the Farmer Institute of Tallahassee (FIT) and the communities served by our Farmer Markets. Farmer Market Ambassadors will share information and enthusiasm about their market with their communities to increase awareness and attendance of markets, while keeping Market Managers at FIT informed of the unique needs of the community they serve.  

How It Works

When at market, connect with customers and market participants both formally and informally.

Share community feedback with FIT staff so improvements can be made.
