• <br /> Item Numbers: 7A.1 <br /> Meeting Date: January 16, 2009 <br /> Type of Business: EDC <br /> City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> To: Economic Development Commission <br /> From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist <br /> Item Title/Subject: Supplement to Item 7A - Potential Mounds View Farmer's <br /> Market <br /> Background <br /> This staff report is a supplement to Item 7A (Potential Mounds View Farmer's Market) of <br /> the January 16, 2009 EDC agenda. City staff recently received additional information <br /> about Shoreview's Farmers' Market, which is run by the City of Shoreview. <br /> Information <br /> • City staff recently spoke at length to Lesley Young, Recreation Programs Coordinator <br /> for the City of Shoreview. Ms. Young is employed part-time (30 hours a week) by the <br /> Shoreview Parks and Recreation Department and spends two-thirds of her time <br /> managing Shoreview's farmer's market. <br /> History <br /> Shoreview's market began ten years ago when a Shoreview resident approached the <br /> City of Shoreview asking to sell vegetables from her garden in the City Hall parking lot. <br /> Location/Size <br /> Shoreview's market is located in the Shoreview City Hall lower parking lot. The market <br /> has grown to 45-50 vendors, which is the largest farmer's market in the area (next to <br /> Maple Grove) excluding Minneapolis and St. Paul. Ms. Young said the average size of <br /> a farmer's market is 10-30 vendors. <br /> Timeframe/Length <br /> Shoreview's market occurs every Tuesday from 3-7pm lasting from July through <br /> October each year. Ms. Young works twelve-hour days on Tuesdays during the <br /> farmer's market season. <br /> • <br />
