Market Kids
"Let parents bequeath to their children not riches, but the spirit of reverence."
-Plato
Nothing makes us happier than seeing children experiencing the market and enjoying their community. We strive to help children develop a reverence for the earth, and an appreciation for their food and the people who grow it. It's our hope that we're growing a generation that embraces farming, lives like a local, and eats with seasons.
This Saturday we've got lots of great activities for the little ones, starting bright and early at 9:30am. Read on and see what
fun awaits you!
*And if you haven't signed your child up for the
POP (Power of Produce) Club, be sure to stop by the INFO tent and find out what it's all about!

Pheasant Hill Farm & PorTch Tea

From Melannie DeVault:
"So we oldster Pheasant Hill Farmers charged up our bucket list in Alaska last week—and the flowers charged up like crazy here on the farm! We’ll have bouquets with our favorite lisianthus, and Asiatic lilies, dahlias, and much, much more this week.
And Kombucha guy Don and his PorTch Tea will have some berry good blends, with our blueberries, of course, and a really good peach. And beet. And several other usual suspects. We’ll even explain where the name PorTch came from, if you haven’t heard!"
