Campus Market

The event will be set up as a traditional CAMPUS MARKET AND WILL HIGHLIGHT WOMEN IN AGRICULTURE, while also encouraging support for all farmers. The market will be open to Southern University students, faculty, staff, and the community. There will be a free Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Bag giveaway consisting of fresh fruits and vegetables on a first-come, first-served basis. Participants will also be able to participate in hands-on demonstrations and purchase food items, customized products, and clothing from students in Southern University’s Nutrition, Apparel Merchandising and Textiles, and the Sisters in Christ Clubs. Local women farmers and entrepreneurs will also sell jams, jellies, cakes, skincare products, and more during the event. Vendor booths are still available for women farmers and entrepreneurs. The Campus Market is sponsored by the Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center, the Southern University System Foundation, and the Louisiana Department of Health.
