The Surge Cupboard Food Pantry invites students to the first Farmer’s Market of Spring 2024, on Thursday, February 15, starting at 11 a.m., in the ATLC First Floor Lounge, near the fireplace.

Free seasonal fruits and vegetables provided by the Freestore Foodbank will be available to any currently-registered Cincinnati State student.

The Farmer’s Market is part of a partnership between Cincinnati State and the Freestore Foodbank.
Additional Spring Farmer’s Market days are March 21 and April 18.
