City officials have informed the Chamber that we have made the first cut in the contest to run the local Farmers' Market. The City put the long-term operating contract for the popular market up for bid when the original operator folded up as a non-profit organization. Farmers' Markets must have a sponsor, per State law, that is either a farmer, a municipality or a nonprofit 501c organization.
Along with two other would-be operators, including one who currently manages the market on a custodial basis, we will interview with a citizens committee to answer questions about how we would improve the local market. Email me if you'd like to see our proposal, or if you have input on how the beloved South Pasadena Farmers' Market can stay in the hands of a local organization.
