The Concordia Farmers Market is part of a larger effort that includes a campus garden. The market and the campus garden (educational in nature but also productive) are part of an effort to contribute to the building of a vibrant and environmentally healthy (read organic) local food system in this area.

Their mission statement: The mission of the Concordia College Garden is to educate the community about food production that is healthy, environmentally sustainable, and practical in a manner that encourages active engagement and lessens our global footprint.
Here is a utube about the garden project:
