Dear Agriculture,
Thousands of people across the country, from every state, cast their votes in the America’s Favorite Farmers Markets contest and told us about their favorite market! We received so many positive comments from customers that really appreciate what their farmers market has to offer to their community.
Each and every one of the 860 farmers markets that enrolled in the contest helps ensure that our communities are surrounded by farms that can provide the delicious fresh food we all crave. By providing us with a place to purchase regional foods, farmers markets help keep farmers on the land so that they can continue to provide fresh food for our tables as well as community economic benefits and a wonderful place for all to gather.
We want to thank each and every one of the farmers market managers and customers who made the contest happen though their participation. Throughout the campaign thousands of people, along with bloggers and the media were talking about the contest helping to promote farmers markets on both the local and national level! We certainly went a long way toward reaching our goal of making a national splash about farmers markets and the farms they support!
And now. . . the farmers markets with the most votes in this year’s contest are. . .
Thank you all once again for your participation in this great summer campaign!
Sincerely,
Gretchen Hoffman
