46. Meet Me at the Farmers Market

Farmers markets are places where local produce and foods are sold directly by farmers to consumers. Some are small with just a few stands and others span many city blocks. Hear how farmers markets started more than 5000 years ago, why their numbers grew in the mid-2000s, and how they benefit our food system. Meet Randii MacNear, Manager of the Davis Farmers Market who tells us about the origins of the Davis Farmers Market, how she decides which vendors are selected, and how the market navigated the COVID-19 pandemic. Then visit Lancaster, Pennsylvania, home to the oldest continuously operated public farmers’ market in the United States. Find out why Lancaster was the capital of the U.S. for just one day, and how the area became the heart of Pennsylvania's Amish community.
