It formally recognizes the role farmers markets play in connecting communities and supporting U.S. farmers, food producers, and consumers. The resolution highlights non-binding findings, including: * Farmers markets generated $1.7 billion in income for U.S. farmers in 2020. * The number of U.S. farmers markets grew from 1,755 in 1994 to 8,771 in 2019. * Farmers markets help low-income individuals using federal nutrition benefits, link rural and urban communities, and encourage sustainable farming practices.

No laws, federal regulations, or mandatory programs would change. The resolution simply places the House of Representatives on record as supporting the designated week and recognizing the contributions of farmers markets.
