Conventional farming practices are largely unsustainable, including practices such as large-scale farming, monocropping, and factory farms that degrade soil quality, pollute the environment and disrupt climate systems. The supercenters and grocery stores supplied by this system offer little opportunity for community and cultural development around our food system. Food labels can be misleading to the average consumer's understanding of farming and nutritional information. This has led society to develop a lack of appreciation and understanding of food systems. Globalized food supply chains can be easily disrupted from natural disasters resulting from the increasing climate crisis and health crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic, leaving communities without a local food system food insecure. Due to this, the further development of sustainable local food systems is necessary to provide environmental protections, allow for cultural development to bring value and appreciation back to the food system, and create a resilient food system that can withstand future health and environmental disasters. Through surveys and interviews, this study investigates the social and environmental sustainability practices of three farmers markets and their potential to be a leading example for the creation of a sustainable and resilient food system. The results found farmers markets to be a viable alternative to conventional farming practices both socially and environmentally, and resilient in the face of COVID-19. However, there are areas for improvement that could be made. Policy frameworks should be applied to investigate these systems and improve policies that support local food systems. Farmers market structures can be utilized to guide these policy developments and incentivize food suppliers and markets to adopt local food supply chains.
