STAFF REPORT <br />TO:Parks & Recreation Commission <br />FROM:Claire Hoffman, Recreation Coordinator <br />DATE:October 1, 2020 <br />RE:Farmers Market Recap <br />The Little Canada Farmers Market season ended on September 28. The market had run 13 weeks <br />beginning in July. There were seven or eight vendors each week including two returning farmers, <br />a Master Gardener, three new farmers, and local food businesses. Various community interest <br />booths could not attend due to COVID 19 restrictions. The Market was well received this year, <br />with an average of 240 attendees every week, which is up from 175 last year. Little Canada <br />Parks and Recreation attended a booth at nine Markets and was able to greet visitors, hand out <br />program information, and answer questions about City events. Staff looks forward to continuing <br />to grow the market for the 2021 season by adding more vendors, community groups, and <br />interactive opportunities.
