From Coast to Coast: A Snapshot of the 2018 Farmers Market Poster Contest
Posted On: May 25, 2018
The 2018 National Farmers Market Poster Contest has come to a close, folks! The deadline for poster submissions was May 15th, but you still have till until May 31st to act as a judge for the Fan Favorite award.
Your vote counts as a ‘like’ for your local market or favorite submission. Browse the contest album in FMC’s Facebook photo gallery and click your ‘thumbs-up’. The resulting Fan Favorite poster, along with the 1st place, 2nd place, Best Metrics poster, and Best SNAP/EBT poster will be awarded mid-June. Stay tuned for that announcement!
In the meantime, we’d like to thank every market that submitted their poster this year. We were truly blown away by the diversity and creativity of markets across the nation. From the community engagement efforts, local design talents, to the visual storytelling, every market offered their piece of local in a special way.
