Supporting the future of Milltown Farmers Market

After Hurricane Helene, Canton, NC is on a journey of renewal. The Milltown Farmers Market has already faced challenges from the 2021 flooding and broader economic pressures, but remains committed to its mission. It continues to serve as a platform for local small businesses and farms in Haywood County, making nutritious food accessible to everyone, and building connections among neighbors—now more than ever.

In a world where isolation can be crippling, building connections is essential. The MTFM offers local goods, live music, and food trucks, making it a welcoming spot for everyone. By accepting SNAP benefits, we ensure that low-income families can access healthy food. MTFM is dedicated to creating a stronger, more connected community as we rebuild.

The market team is genuinely concerned about its upcoming sponsorship season and the need to raise funds early this year due to the flood's impact. Local sponsors may not be able to support the market as they have in the past, so we're reaching out to a broader community. We believe that with the support of neighbors near and far, we can keep this vital community project thriving during this time of uncertainty.

Thank you for your support!
