Welcome to The Wild Ramp!
The Wild Ramp (Tri-State Local Foods, Inc.) is an indoor, year-round, nonprofit farmers market based in Huntington, West Virginia, with a mission to support our community by promoting local agriculture, providing fresh food and celebrating artisan craftsmanship.
We believe that:
•Locally produced food promotes healthier lifestyles
• Supporting local economies is beneficial and environmentally friendly
• Meeting local food demand is essential
• Access to local food should be equitable to all members of our community
As a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, we rely on the public for support. Our market started as a grassroots effort to combat the rising climb of obesity in our area by making fresh local food accessible to all.
In 2012, our vision was very clear: to grow and operate a sustainable farmers market for locally grown and produced food and artisan items. As we have grown, we have expanded our retail market, added new programs such as The Harvest Kitchen and SNAP Stretch and implemented new services such as our Online Food Hub. It is most important to us that we provide the opportunity, support and space for local producers and the community to come together for a common goal of growing and supporting our local food economy. We will continue to focus on our mission through everything that we do, and further our vision through our market, Online Food Hub, programs and events.
