"We roasted the Brussels sprouts for our Christmas meal today. Olive oil, fresh ground pepper, and Kosher salt. 425 degrees for about 30 minutes. Gigi, my God, totally fresh produce beats meat. The fresh celery and onion in the stuffing, roasted Brussels sprouts? Fresh picked. The turkey took a supporting role." ...Malcolm & Christy

We are proud to celebrate farmers markets and what they mean to us as consumers, as members of a community and broader foodshed*. Farmers markets afford customers access to fresh, local food, while giving farmers an important opportunity for direct marketing** which helps those who work hardest to put food on our table to enjoy the fruits of their labor. Farmers markets are cultural centers, and in the time of COVID-19, they provided a crucial source of food security amidst disrupted commodity networks in a well ventilated outdoor venue for safe shopping.

**According to the USDA Economic Research Service, in 2018, out of every dollar spent on food, only 14.6 cents went to farmers.
