Mobile Market/Pantry 2020 Recap: We are proud to announce that we increased the number of people we were able to distribute free food to in 2020 in spite of the safety issues we had to deal with during the pandemic. We would like to thank all our volunteers, Bendix for donating the Mobile Market van, Our F.A.M.I.L.Y. for purchasing the fuel for our distributions, Buckeye Health for their continued support, Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio for providing the free fruit/produce, and their support throughout the year, and LMHA and Horizon Education Center for providing the space for us to run our food pantry in 2020...Thank You... Thank You...Thank You!

Elyria Farmers Market 9/11/2021:
And so another Elyria Farmers Market end of the season for Invest Elyria! We want to say thank you to all our vendors that came out this year, the sponsors for their generous contributions, our volunteers that supported our efforts, the Elyria Parks and Recreation department for their participation and the City of Elyria for their support! A special thank you to all our customers that came out and supported these small businesses that strive to survive and our few new start-up businesses. Without you, none of this would be possible!
