Howdy neighbors!
Here is an online poll that will help us to find the best day and time for the next Barnum Farmer’s Market meeting: http://doodle.com/8kfdha9b42bh4c4s
Please fill it out as soon as possible so that we can all spread the word once we get it scheduled. The deadline for filling out the poll is Oct. 1st. The meeting location will be announced with the final date/time selection -- but it will probably be the library, if the library is open and available during the chosen time.
At this next meeting, I think that the main goals will be:
- To get a better idea of how many neighbors are interested in actually having farm stands on the market days. Is this worth our time? Are there enough people at the meeting to justify going forward?
- To get a better understanding of how we can each contribute our efforts to make the market a success for the neighborhood. Who wants to be the contact person for the farm stands? Who wants to create and update the maps for each market day? Who wants to distribute flyers? Who wants to lead meetings or take notes during meetings? Who wants to contact/communicate with local organizations? Etc. There’s a lot to do and no one person can do it all! Are there enough helpers to make this possible?
- Create a timeline for the market days going forward.
If there’s anything else you’d like to discuss at the meeting, please bring your ideas with you! RSVP for the meeting is not required, but would be helpful! welcometobarnum@gmail.com
