We’re more than half way through the Long Season Winter Farmers’ Market, and spring approaches. Thank you to the many community members who support this market. By supporting our local farmers, even and especially during the lean winter months, you help them thrive and encourage their year-round productivity for next year and beyond. By voting with your food dollars, you also participate in the creation of a sustainable, local food system — a hopeful, healthy alternative to an unsustainable industrial food system. Thank you! We couldn’t do it without you.
