When you buy produce, you typically don't know much about how it's grown or how many miles it traveled before it reaches you. This means it won't be as fresh, tasty, or nutrient-dense as it could be. Buying farm-fresh produce, on the other hand, means you know where your food comes from and can get specific information about how it was grown. It will be delicious, colorful, and full of important nutrients, and as an added bonus, you'll be helping to support your local farmers and economy.

Our real estate agents recommend visiting these five places in Stark County to stock up on farm-fresh produce.

1. North Canton Farmers Market – 1447 N. Main St., North Canton, OH 44720  
   You'll be able to buy a wide variety of local products year-round at the North Canton Farmers Market, including farm products, baked and preserved goods, and personal care items. Almost everything that's offered for sale travels less than an hour from the farm or kitchen it was created in to where it's sold at the market, located near North Canton homes for sale. During warmer weather months. The market is operated outside, then moves to the indoors after mid-October. And while you're shopping at the market, check out its Mural of Gratitude, a farmers market-inspired piece of art. Hours are 3-6 p.m. on Wednesdays.
