Each year, the Michigan Farmers Market Association (MIFMA) gathers with farmers market managers and partners who work to increase healthy food access through Michigan farmers markets. Join in these meetings to share the successes and challenges of these efforts and to learn what is on the horizon for food access initiatives at farmers markets in 2018. *Who Should Attend* Program partners, market managers, market staff, and supporters of farmers markets that accept food assistance benefits. These meetings will *not *provide training about how to accept food assistance benefits at farmers markets. Training on how to accept food assistance benefits will take place through MIFMA's Market Manager Certificate Program <http://mifma.org/mmcp/>and the annual SNAP webinar which will be scheduled for February 2018. *The Marquette Commons** - **Marquette, MI* Monday, November 13, 2017 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. EST *Register Now* <https://mifma.z2systems.com/np/clients/mifma/eventRegistration.jsp?event=697&secureIdCustomer=1&> *Flint Farmers Market - Flint, MI* Thursday, November 16, 2017 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. EST *Register Now* <https://mifma.z2systems.com/np/clients/mifma/eventRegistration.jsp?event=692&secureIdCustomer=1&> Best, -- *Samantha Collins* Communications and Events Manager Michigan Farmers Market Association 480 Wilson Road, Room 172 East Lansing, MI 48824 517.432.3381 *www.mifma.org <http://www.mifma.org>* *MIFMA Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/michiganfarmersmarketassociation>* *MIFMA Twitter* <http://twitter.com/farmersmarketmi> *Get under the umbrella! * If you would like to access previous postings to the Mich-Organic listserv you can copy and paste the following URL into your browser address bar http://list.msu.edu/archives/mich-organic.html
