Non Technical Summary
Farm-to-table retailing largely represented by farmers markets has grown rapidly in recent years. To date, researchers have developed a profile of consumers patronizing farmers markets in a particular state or regional context. However, there has been little research focusing on farmers market patronage (FMP) in Minnesota, despite the dramatic rise of public interest in locally grown food in the state. With that in mind, this study is designed to develop an integrative model of FMP using a mixed methods approach. In so doing, this study will generate an updated profile of farmers market consumers in the Twin Cities Area, Minnesota.This study attempts to identify and examine a wide range of variables in order to deepen our understanding of an underlying process of FMP. This research will provide theoretical implications that involve consumer motivations and attitudes to the manifestation of consumer behavior in FMP. Further, better understanding the full scope of this topic will enable farm-to-table retailers to effectively manage their retail operations and target marketing strategies.Finally, this study will provide implications for policy makers and health educators. Farmers markets have a great potential to increase community-wide fruit and vegetable consumption, while reconnecting consumers with the land, revitalizing neighborhoods, and promoting a green and sustainable environment. Also, farmers markets are important contributors to local economies. They allow individual entrepreneurs and their families to contribute to the economic life of local communities via farm-to-table retailing, while bringing farmers and consumers together to solidify bonds of local identity and solidarity. In this regard, this research will help policy makers and health educators set clear goals and design effective public education or intervention programs.

Goals / Objectives
With the emergence of "locavores" (i.e., people whose diet consist only or principally of locally grown/produced food) ("New Oxford American Dictionary," n.d), farm-to-table retailing largely represented by farmers markets has grown rapidly in recent years. According to the USDAFarmers Market Directory, the number of farmers markets in the United States has increased from just under 2,000in 1994 to currently more than 8,600 markets. The 2016 Minnesota Grownguides, a directory of local food resources, published by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture listed 177 farmers markets in Minnesota. Consistent with the national trend, this figure indicates a more than four-fold increase in the span of fifteen years (Kaul, 2016).A farmers market can be defined as a public and recurring assembly of farmers or their representatives selling the food that they produced directly to consumers (Farmers Market Coalition, 2017). It is inherently a hedonic retail format providing social and multisensory experiences. Consumers enjoy the summer breezes and the aroma of ripened fruit and fresh vegetables at farmers markets while socializing with their neighbors and local farmers (Moss, 2015). Farmers markets put consumers back in touch with the way their food has been produced and increase their awareness of seasonality in food production (Trobe, 2001). Consumers appreciate the fresh taste of seasonal vegetables and fruits grown in a local area (Farmers Market Coalition, 2017), even when prices at farmers markets are not necessarily better than at local stores (Moss, 2015).We, as a society receive multiple benefits from farmers markets: (a) through buying locally grown produce at farmers markets, consumers can support local farmers and contribute to revitalizing rural economies; (b) farmers also benefit through retaining more of the value of their produce by circumventing the "middlemen" in the supply chain; and (c) creating markets where consumers can buy produce from local farmers reduces the distance that food travels between farmers and consumers (i.e., food miles), which in turn decreases associated fossil fuel consumption, air pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions (Trobe, 2001).To date, researchers have developed a profile of consumers patronizing farmers markets in a particular state or regional context. For example, a study conducted in Tennessee reported that a typical farmers market patron was female, 45 or older with some college education and an above-average income (cited in Wolf, Spittler, & Ahern, 2005). Another study conducted in California reported that farmers market shoppers were more likely to be female, married, and have completed post graduate work than non-shoppers (Wolf et al., 2005). However, there has been little research focusing on farmers market patronage (hereinafter referred to as FMP) in Minnesota, despite the dramatic rise of public interest in locally grown food in the state (Walljasper, 2012). With that in mind, this study is designed to develop an integrative model of FMP using a mixed methods approach. In so doing, this study will generate an updated profile of farmers market consumers in the Twin Cities Area, Minnesota.SummaryRecognizing that each of exisiting literature sources captures a partial picture of the entire puzzle, the purpose of this study is to develop an integrative model of FMP. While investigating the 15 research questions identified from the preliminary literature review in the previous section, the objective of the research is to develop and test a conceptual model delineating the following variables in a structural manner: (a) motivations for FMP; (b) attitudinal constructs that mediate the linkages between motivations and behaviors in FMP; and (c) desirable FMP behaviors derived from motivations and attitudes. Toward this grand goal, this research will also generate an updated profile of farmers market consumers in the Twin Cities Area, Minnesota.
Project Methods
Mixed Methods ApproachThis research will adopt a mixed methods approach. Specifically, a sequential exploratory strategy will be employed (Creswell, 2009). This strategy involves a first phase of qualitative data collection and analysis, followed by a second phase of quantitative data collection and analysis that builds on the results of the first qualitative phase. The data are mixed through being connected between the qualitative data analysis and the quantitative data collection. This research design is deemed appropriate as it can test elements of an emergent conceptual framework resulting from the qualitative phase and validate qualitative findings through quantitative data collected from a different sample.Year 1: Qualitative StudyThe goals of this study will be to: (a) investigate the 15 research questions; and (b) explore consumer motivations, attitudes, and behaviors toward farmers markets; and (c) identify antecedent, consequences, and moderators that will be used to develop an integrative model of FMP. The critical incidence method (Bitner et al., 1990) will be employed at this qualitative stage. Exploratory interviews will be conducted by trained student field researchers who will recruit, conduct, and transcribe an interview with one nonstudent subject. Each interviewer will be provided with an interview guide and very specific written instructions concerning how to conduct interviews. The sample will be composed of 50 farmers market patrons residing in the Twin Cities Area, Minnesota. To ensure a rich discussion during these short interviews, interviewers will be trained to keep the interviews unstructured and informal but to pose extensive follow-up questions throughout the interview. Interview data will be analyzed through a two-phase coding procedure. Two trained graduate students will be provided with the transcribed interviews and code the text according to content analysis procedures, a data-driven technique to assess the emerging themes from narrative text (see Spiggle, 1994). First, the coders, unaware of the relevant literature, will independently analyze all interviews to identify the reoccurring comments concerning respondents' shopping behavior at farmers markets, after practicing on five randomly selected interviews. Next, the coders will re-examine the short interviews to identify the frequency of theme occurrence across respondents. The coders will discuss any disagreements and reached resolutions for all incidents. The themes, along with their definitions, examples, and frequency of occurrence will be compiled in a Table format. An integrative model of consumer behavior at farmers markets with a set of hypotheses will be developed based on the qualitative study.Year 2: Quantitative Study A survey questionnaire will be used to collect the data. The Project Director will contact and seek support from famers market co-ops in the Twin Cities Area and University of Minnesota Extension educators in the areas of family economics, nutrition, and family businesses. She has developed research partnerships with the Hmong-American Partnership (HAP) and UMN Extension in her previous community-based projects and worked with several farmers market co-op leaders. Using a consumer intercept survey method at three different farmers markets in the Twin Cities Area, participants will be contacted and subsequently given a paper copy of the self-administered questionnaire. A total of 200 responses will be collected.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? The journal paper was generated from this project. Its abstract is below: The rise in popularity of farmers markets in the United States reflects consumers' negative response to more traditional food distribution systems. Farmers markets provide consumers with a more local and often more personal food purchasing experience. The purpose of this study was to examine consumer motivations to patronize farmers markets through the lens of social, spatial, and natural embeddedness. A qualitative approach was employed utilizing semi-structured, in- depth interviews. These interviews were conducted in person using a set of predetermined questions and revealed nine themes. The findings indicate that two types of consumer choices with different properties exist in farmers' market patronage (i.e., the choice of a particular farmers market vs. the choice of a particular vender at the market). Inconsistency occurs in consumer choice patterns (e.g., economic saving does not greatly affect the choice to shop at a particular farmers market, but can determine whom to buy from once at the market), implying that situational dynamics play a critical role at the point of purchase. While this study supports the usefulness of embeddedness as a conceptual framework for understanding farmers' market patronage, it demonstrates a distinction between motivation to patronize the market and shopping behaviors exhibited once there.
