WALK UP AN APPETITE WITH WALK MEDFORD!
Walk Medford will be hosting a walk that starts and ends at the Medford Farmers Market this Thursday, August 11, from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m. All are welcome! Meet at the managers tent. Questions? Contact Syrah at the Board of Health: 781-393-2560.
MANAGER’S MESSAGE: WHEN IN DROUGHT
Here’s where you come in. Shopping at your local farmers market—and encouraging your friends and family to support their local farmers by shopping at their local markets—is a huge help to those farmers struggling with the lack of rain. Challenge yourself to get all your produce for the week from the market and get creative with what you find there. If you have any questions about what to make, ask a farmer! Supporting the farmers is crucial right now, and buying as much of their produce as you can is key to them making it through this tough season. Fill your own bags—and bring friends!
Cheers,
Sarah
