| Publisher Description: We are pleased to present this Guide for Farmers Markets on Military Installations, a comprehensive online manual that explains how to successfully establish and operate farmers markets on military bases. This manual is the result of a collaboration between the U.S. Department of Defense's (DoD) Healthy Base Initiative (HBI) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), in partnership with Wholesome Wave. The DoD launched the Healthy Base Initiative (HBI) - a demonstration project at 14 military installations that works to improve nutritional choices, increase physical activity, reduce obesity, and decrease tobacco use -on March 18, 2013. In support of the theme of "Healthy Eating," HBI has helped increase the availability of quality wholesome food and agricultural products on military bases by establishing farmers markets. |
