Ithaca Farmers Market (IFM), and its sister organization, Friends of IFM, is pleased to announce that work to renovate the Parking Lot at Steamboat Landing has begun! This project, planned since 2017, was designed by Whitham Planning Design Landscape Architecture, and received a nearly $3.6m grant award, made possible through the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP). This project is being constructed with funding provided by the New York State Department of State (DOS) under Title 11 of the Environmental Protection Fund. These funds cover 85% of costs, but Friends of the Ithaca Farmers Market must raise matching funds in the minimum amount of $600,000 to complete the project. 

Make a tax-deductible contribution NOW to Friends of the Ithaca Farmers Market, so they can provide customers a better market shopping experience for years to come. This project is important for many reasons: improved safety and accessibility; decreased puddles, mud and runoff into the inlet due to improved drainage; better lighting; more native plants and better bike access with the addition of racks, bikeway, shelters and more! 

The IFM is one of Ithaca's most loved destinations drawing thousands of locals and visitors each weekend. Help make the IFM even better as we look toward the next 50 years and beyond!
