“And that’s the message we’re trying to get across to the decision makers and politicians. Farmers markets are not special events or community projects—they’re an economic driver that employs hundreds of people and allows access to fresh food.” —Tara McDonald, executive director of Vancouver Farmers Markets and member of the city’s Food Policy Council.
