The Common Market

The Common Market is a nonprofit regional food distributor on a mission to connect urban communities with local food from sustainable family farms. We do this by:

selling fresh, healthy food to community institutions,
creating a supply chain for farmers and ranchers who are at the forefront of creating an equitable and resilient food system,
and providing avenues for values-aligned wholesale food procurement, guiding our partners to see the full value of the food and its impact on the health of their people, community and environment.

We strive to improve food security, farm viability, and community and ecological health across the country.

The Common Market currently has hubs in four regions: the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Texas, and Great Lakes. Each location operates independently, managing its own infrastructure and local staff. “The Commons,” our centralized location, provides support across the organization. We are actively expanding to other U.S. regions to build a nation of vibrant regional food systems!
