A new report shows the impact that farmers markets have on the local economy in Pennsylvania.
The study was conducted by Penn State Extension and it studied 15 percent of local farmers markets last year and found they generated $18 million in economic activity.
Penn State researches say there around 330 farmers markets in the state and estimate that they have more than $100 million of impact on the state’s economy.
The Butler Farmers Market typically runs every Saturday from May through October.
