What We Do
Ruston Farmers Market is a program of North Louisiana Farm Fresh (NLFF), a 501(c)3 nonprofit. The mission of NLFF is to provide direct producer to consumer sales opportunities, support the development of a local food network, and conduct educational outreach of sustainable agriculture, health, and nutrition throughout North Louisiana.
North Louisiana Farm Fresh is a community of people who believe in the importance of maintaining and growing local food in the North Louisiana region. We support the farming community by providing a low-cost venue for them to sell their products. We have also been the spring-board for many entrepreneurs to begin new business ventures that have totally morphed into brick and mortar businesses.
We also strive to be an education hub in all things related to sustainable agriculture, hobby gardening, recycling, healthy cooking, healthy living, and local initiatives related to food and business.
