Farmers Market

Farmers' Markets have been growing popularity for the past couple of decades.  In your apartment community, some of your neighbors may share your interest in Farmers' Markets.  Like you, they like the variety of locally grown fruits and vegetables, fresh meats, and handmade crafts.  Your busy schedule, however, may not allow you time to visit the Farmers' Market as often as you would like.  In this case, a neighbor might be able to purchase some fresh produce on their next visit to the market.  Or maybe an elderly person in your community would love to visit the Farmers' Market on a nice day but is no longer able to drive.  Maybe you can help.
