Once you’ve received your coupons you can use them like cash at our participating farmers’ markets (see “Where to Shop” for list of markets) for the purchase of fresh fruits & vegetables. Please note that coupons expire on June 30, 2021 so remember to spend them before then!
Where to Shop

You can use your coupons at any of these market locations. Note that each market has different days/hours of operation. Summit Lake Farmers’ Market & Barberton Farmers’ Market are accessible on public transportation (click for metro map).

Additional Shopping Information
The farmers and food producers who sell through Countryside’s markets are all from within a 75 mile radius. This means the food you buy is fresh and local, and the fruits & vegetables available are dependent on the growing season. For a general guide to Northeast Ohio seasonality, click here.
