New Legal Resource on Free Speech at Markets from the National Farmers Market Coalition
The team at Vermont Law School's Center for Agriculture and Food Systems (CAFS), in partnership with FMC and NOFA-Vermont, is pleased to share a new legal resource for farmers market operators.
Many farmers markets face questions about free speech—in particular, what types of restrictions markets can place on activities like leafleting, political campaigning, and protesting. Are farmers markets obligated to allow these types of activities as exercises of free speech under the First Amendment?
The new factsheet to begin to answer these complicated questions is available on the Farmers Market Legal Toolkit website, along with other open-access legal resources to help markets stay accessible and resilient.
