Environmental Technology (IMET), including the work of the University of
Maryland Center for Environmental Science; The University of Maryland,
Baltimore; and the University of Maryland, College Park.
- The farmers' market is open every Tuesday
from 10am
- 2:30pm through
November 22nd, and is located at University Plaza Park across from the Medical Center's main entrance in downtown Baltimore. By hosting a Farmers' Market, UMMC and
UMB are helping to improve the availability of fresh, locally grown food to its
employees, patients, visitors and area residents and businesses. Purchasing
food from local farmers not only supports the local agricultural community and
the local economy, but it also decreases "food miles."
