New online farmers market available for Penn State Hershey employees

The Farmers Market in Hershey is partnering with Healthy Living Kitchen to enable Medical Center and College of Medicine employees to purchase market products online and pick them up more conveniently on campus. The goal is to help people with busy work schedules have better access to fresh, healthy foods that are grown and produced locally in central Pennsylvania. Consider the service like a personal shopper: place an online order, the order is packed up with items at the Farmers Market and brought to the parking area behind the Centerview Garage, and employees can stop in after work and pick it up on their way home. The pickup location will be open from 5 to 7 p.m. on Thursdays. Signage will direct employees to the pickup location.

Click here to access the online market.Orders may be placed online starting at 5 p.m. Thursdays until noon Tuesdays for the following Thursday pickup. Download the app for even easier ordering and pay with a credit card from the secure site. This service has been created for Penn State Hershey employees, but it is open to anyone interested in participating.
