This engaging session explores how creative placemaking can make your Farmers Market grow from a place of commerce to a community gathering spot. Strategic partnerships and community engagement have resulted in a variety of programming attracting diverse groups of people to visit our market annually, join us to learn how and why. Weekly markets are complemented by monthly community concerts, food trucks, storytime events, holiday markets, youth and artisan fairs, and much more. This 55-minute session will share tips and tricks for growing your market through creative placemaking.
