POP Club at Bexley Farmers’ Market in October

In partnership with FresHealth and the Bexley Community Foundation, the Bexley Farmers’ Market will be piloting a Power of Produce Club at the market in October. The program, designed for kids ages 5-12, provides an opportunity to engage in the local food system through conversations with farmers, educational games, demonstrations, and exposure to new fruits and vegetables. In addition to participating in educational activities, POP Club kids receive a $2 voucher to spend each week they attend, empowering them to make their own shopping decisions at the market!

POP Club 2021 will take place at the Bexley Farmers Market each Thursday in October. Please visit the market information booth for more details on POP Club activities.

The last Bexley Farmers’ Market of the year is Thursday, October 21!
