National Farmers Market Week celebrates local agriculture and the dedicated farmers who bring fresh produce and goods to communities. This week, residents are encouraged to visit their local farmers markets to enjoy seasonal flavors and foster a healthier, more connected community.

In Hillsboro, Lincoln Plaza hosts an array of local vendors offering plants, produce, food, garden décor, and artisanal items. The markets provide a family-friendly atmosphere. Visitors can also explore Hillsboro’s diverse shops, stores, boutiques, and restaurants. Additional information about the Hillsboro farmers market is available online.

Sangamon County Board members have expressed enthusiasm regarding the Farm-To-Table Pilot Program. Sponsored for just four months, the program has garnered significant interest and positive feedback. A video highlights the program currently being tested at the Pawnee School District.
