Based in Rootstown, Ohio, Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED) has been a positive force to enhance health care education and practice for more than 40 years. As one of Ohio’s 14 public universities, few of which are located in a rural setting, the University strives to be a respectful neighbor and friend within the community. We support responsible growth on campus, but seek to preserve the charm and character of our rural home.
As part of Northeast Ohio Medical University’s efforts to increase overall wellness, the University will host a weekly Mini Farmer’s Market this summer.
When and where is it?
The Mini Farmer’s Market will be held every Wednesday from June 11 through October from 4:30-6:30 p.m. It will take place in Parking Lot A, which is on the southeast corner of campus nearest the Key Bank.
Who is invited to attend?
The event is open to the public
