NEA Baptist is kicking-off the summer with the second annual series of the NEA Baptist Farmers Market as a way to promote healthy living. With a goal to “Eat Well, Live Better,” the NEA Baptist Farmers’ Market will offer local produce and hand –made items, with the addition of a specific health focus at each market. The market will be located on the southwest corner of the medical campus, allowing easy access for the public and employees.

“We had great participation and feedback from the community last year. We are excited to offer this avenue of healthy lifestyle choices and to support our local producers again,” said Darrell King, CEO of NEA Baptist Clinic, “Our hope is that we can continue to help people realize the importance of eating right by providing easy access to recipes, food and health information. Taking steps in the improvement of their own lives leads to less chronic disease and better health.”

The Farmer’s Market will take place from 8:30 am – 1:30 pm on the second Thursday of each month from June through September. Local vendors will be setup in the parking lot selling everything from produce to handmade items. There will also be educational information about the prevention of chronic illnesses and diseases, various health screenings, and an area for kids to play.

Brad Parsons, CEO and administrator of NEA Baptist Memorial Hospital also added that, “Our health system is really focusing on the health of our employees. Last year, we began a walking trail exercise plan for employees and visitors. We recently offered a health fair to all employees. Now, we are continuing to provide means for them to easily access local produce and recipes for them to use in their meal planning. Improved health of our employees translates to better health of our community.”
