It’s National Farmers Market Week, a national event that celebrates the huge role that farmers markets play in supporting local agriculture, strengthening community ties and improving food access. Locally, the Wayne County Farmers Market is celebrating 50 years of farm fresh food.
We spoke with Anita Avvisato, co-manager of the Wayne County Farmers Market , about how the market got started and what’s ahead.
