We received an email on Tuesday from one of the devoted patrons of the Malcolm X Farmers Market. We encourage you to support this effort to keep this community resource in operation.

Save The Malcolm X Community Farmers Market

Word is that there hasn’t been enough business for the farmer to keep coming down to the Malcolm X Community Farmers Market. We’re hoping to get as many people out this weekend in order to show that it can be successful.

We need the Malcolm X Community Farmers Market in the neighborhood. If you live in the area, stop by, buy some great fresh fruits or veggies and tell-better yet bring your neighbors along with you to shop.

If you have friends, family, acquaintances who live in the neighborhood, pass along the information. We’ll only be able to make this work if people come out and support.
