Who we are
Skip’s Farm to Market Core ValuesWe are a year-round farmers’ market and specialty small town grocery, with values rooted in the beliefs that:
- Farming is our foundation. We provide the highest quality produce by supporting farms that are stewards of the land, building healthy soil, pushing the possibilities of seasonal growth by choosing to grow beyond organic, practice seed selection and breeding to preserve biodiversity.
- Prioritizing support for local farmers and vendors helps build and support a sustainable local food system. We want our local communities to thrive and gain food independence.
- Team work, through open communication and commitment, creates lasting partnerships by building strong relationships with our employees, farmers, vendors, and customers.
- Excellent customer service matters, and we want your shopping experience to feel fresh, warm and friendly. We also hope you learn something along the way.
- Food preservation, donating food to underserved communities and composting are smart ways to reduce food waste. Sustainability is important to us and eliminating food going to landfills supports the long-term health of our communities.
“Shake the hand that feeds you.”
