Moving Beyond Cancer in NOLA: THE OFFICIAL CRESCENT CITY FARMERS MARKET APP IS LIVE!

We love seeing you browsing the markets in person but we know life gets busy and shopping for your favorite fresh foods can sometimes be a challenge. The new Crescent City Farmers Market (CCFM) App gives you early access to a selection of what’s at market by hosting its vendors in an online farmers market. Make your meal planning easier and guarantee your favorite item doesn’t sell out before you get there by downloading the CCFM App on your mobile device to preview products available at our markets, pre-purchase your items and then simply stop by market at your convenience to pick-up orders. This can give you the convenience and peace of mind knowing that what you want will be there waiting for you without rushing to market, and help vendors make sales before market even starts. With over 20 vendors currently on the app and more to come, you have a wide range of local food at your fingertips.

How it works

Download the free Crescent City Farmers Market app for Apple or Android mobile devices: http://onelink.to/6jt5y2
Browse items on your mobile device before market, and make your selections by adding them to your cart.
Pay through the app using a credit or debit card. Upon checkout, you will be charged a 5% Food System Fee that covers the cost of processing the transaction and allows the vendors to participate in the app for free, helping to make small family farms and food businesses more sustainable. Your payment goes directly to the vendor and they receive their listed price. To find out more about why this is significant, check out this article that explains why farmers typically receive $.078 of every food dollar spent.
Each time you shop, select a market location and day for pick-up. Your order will be held at each individual vendor’s tent on the market date specified and ready for pickup.

But, what’s the best news of all? We’re offering a 25% off discount on your first order with the app! Upon checkout, use the coupon code “FIRSTORDER” to receive your discount.

We have a great assortment of vendors and products currently represented on the app, and will be working to bring more of both online. If there’s something in particular you’d like to see on the app, let us know, or go straight to the source and let the vendor know! Sophie will be at the welcome tent in the coming weeks so check in with her if you have any questions about how it works, or with feedback, or anything else app related. Or you can call us at (504) 861-4488 or email sophie@marketumbrella.org any time.
