In honor of National Farmers Market Week, August 2-8, 2026, this competition helps highlight the vital role farmers markets play in our nation’s food system.
Community members are encouraged to submit their own vegetables and fruit that fit under the three categories: weirdest shaped, largest, and funniest looking produce. At the Market, vote your favorite produce item in each category and the winner gets a prize!
