Municipalities in Kayseri, Turkey, are implementing initiatives to promote organic agriculture and food safety through specialized markets.

In late July, the Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality launched the Natural Products Garden Market, an initiative designed to offer organic-certified products directly from producers. To ensure public health, municipal agricultural engineers conduct pesticide analyses on the items sold.

Following this, the Kocasinan Municipality held its 14th annual ecological market. This long-standing initiative connects certified producers with consumers to support sustainable agriculture and the protection of local seeds. The market involves approximately 30 farmers from seven districts and is recognized by local agricultural associations as one of the most stable organic markets in the country.
