Please take a minute to help us help you by completing the Farmers Market Survey

8/19/2011

We probably should have done this weeks ago. Then again, for those who have already been out to the Market, you have first hand experience of what's going on. Either way, better late than never!

Your feedback is greatly needed and appreciated. It will help us to develop a farmers market best suited to the community's interests. It will also help us to attract new vendors.

And don't worry, the Survey doesn't record any information except the answers. Thanks!
