The Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital
Farmers Market Reopens May 13
The Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital
Foundation is thrilled to announce a return
of their initiative to improve the health of the
people and communities in Logan and eastern
Mason County.
The ALMH Market will reopen on Saturday,
May 13th and continue rain or shine on
Saturdays through September 30. The indoor,
producer-only farmer market will once again be
held from 8 a.m. to noon in the Expo Building
at the Logan County Fairgrounds in Lincoln,
Illinois.
The ALMH Market is an indoor, producer-only
farmers market. The producer-only designation
ensures that all items offered at The Market will
be homegrown, handmade, and/or vendor-created
from locally owned operations within the state of
Illinois.
“We take pride that The ALMH Market has
become a wellness destination like no other
in Illinois,” said Angela Stoltzenburg, ALMH
marketing and community partnerships
director. “The Market is an extension of our
mission to improve the health of the people and
communities we serve; our aim is to promote
fresh food and healthy living while supporting
local farmers and the food-producer economy.”
The Market’s inaugural season was a success
by all counts. Over 13,000 visitors attended the
Market in 2016 and purchased over $32,000 in
local produce.
