At Countryside Farmers’ Markets at Howe Meadow, Old Trail School, and the Countryside Public Market, volunteers promote the zero waste initiative through a waste sorting station. Volunteers educate and instruct market customers on how to correctly dispose of their waste generated at the market through composting and recycling. Volunteers encourage customers to think about how to reduce waste and increase the trash diversion rate.

Mission Statement
The purpose of Countryside is to connect people, food, and land by inspiring, educating, and promoting a resilient, sustainable food culture. We are a leading expert and innovator in community-based farming and conservation programs working through a unique partnership with Cuyahoga Valley National Park and the park-based farms.
Description
We envision Northeast Ohio filled with thriving farming and food entrepreneurs: where farms are viable businesses, farmland is a treasured resource, and local food is commonplace.
We support up-and-coming farmers, share innovative land-use and business models, facilitate networking opportunities and advocate community-based agriculture.
We connect communities and farmers, through alternate market choices, and create venues that foster civic engagement through fun and informal education.
