This toolkit can be helpful to all those running a public market of any size, regardless of whether it’s a traditional farmers market. The intent of this toolkit is to take action against systemic racism and make markets a safe space for all!

“The toolkit uses a framework of four categories to organize the work: Management, Mission, Messaging, and Measurement. There is overlap between these categories. All sections connect to and reference the Measurement section of the toolkit as it will be difficult to sustain change without an ability to demonstrate the real world impact of the work.

The Anti-Racist Farmers Market Toolkit was developed by a group of Black food systems leaders and market managers like Shiny Flanary of Come Thru Market (pictured), to help offer ways for managers to put the concepts of anti-racism into practice and action within farmers markets.”
