Dear Potential Sponsor or Donar:

The West Homewood Company is incredibly grateful for the partnerships we’ve developed with our sponsors over the last decade as we continue to establish a growing and successful community and farmer’s market. In August of 2020, we launched a new non-profit with the same group and the same mission as we had before. We are no longer under Shades Valley Community Church and are a stand-alone Alabama 501c3 Non-Profit Organization.

Our 2023 mission is to:

​

• Continue to champion taking care of land and animals by taking care of Alabama Farmers thru the context of a local Farmer’s Market. The West Homewood Farmer’s Market has been in operation for more than a decade and was voted the #1 market in Central Alabama by a large majority of AL.com readers in 2015. The market features 40-60 vendors including farms, baked goods, arts and crafts, live entertainment, food trucks, kid’s activities and so much more. The market is open every Tuesday night from 5 pm to 8 pm on Tuesday nights during the months of June, July, and the first Tuesday of August where we have co-hosted with the City of Homewood Rescue Departments for the Homewood’s National Night Out. 

• Educate the community about good farming in Alabama and healthy environmental practices.

• Show a monthly agricultural-related movie in Patriot Park.

• Develop a new Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) box of locally grown produce.

• Create initiatives where the community can build sustainable relationships.

• Foster an environment of listening and engaging others to learn and tell their stories.

• Promote the good businesses and people of West Homewood thru blogs and www.westhomewood.com.

The West Homewood Farmer’s Market hopes to inspire a neighborhood and a city to connect and serve each other well. We strive to create sustainable initiatives that serve our patrons and help our vendors.
