Vote Now for “America’s Most Favorite Farmers Market”
The American Farmland Trust is hosting a national contest to recognize the “most favorite” farmers markets in America – Small – Medium and Large. If you are are a supporter of your local market and believe they deserve this recognition I encourage you to VOTE NOW. The deadline for voting is midnight August 8th.
Summer is the time when we all enjoy the local harvest and support our family farms. The American Farmland Trust is an organization that supports and wants to sustain farming in the United States. I encourage you to go to their website (whether you want to vote or not) to learn about their mission and their vision.
You can support local farmers by joing the AFT and becoming a member. When I became a member there was a bonus gift of a reusable shopping bag with the words – No Farms No Food. I use this bag proudly as I check out at my local supermarket and bag my own groceries and often get a second glance at my bag.
Yes, I’m a farmer’s daughter and proud of it! If you want to support your local farmers market VOTE NOW and give them the recognition that they deserve.
