25 Moments in CUESA History | | Next Tuesday, May 22, marks the 25th birthday of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, officially kicking of our anniversary celebrations! The farmers market was created when visionaries like you came together to create a public space for city folks and local farmers to gather, learn, share, and create community through good food. The movement keeps growing. When the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market began, there were only two farmers markets in San Francisco and about 1,750 in the United States; now there are more than 20 in the city and 8,000 in the U.S. Here are some memorable moments and achievements you--our community of farmers, makers, chefs, shoppers, supporters, students, and good food advocates--have made possible over the years. We'll be sharing more highlights at the hashtag #cuesa25. Join the celebration by posting your photos on Instagram using hashtag #cuesa25 for a chance to win tickets to our 25th Birthday Bash on June 10! |
