| Farmers Markets Are for Everyone: Grow Future Food Leaders (VIDEO) |
Like you, Foodwise believes we must nurture the next generation in order to sustain and grow the farmers market community, and invest in the sustainable and equitable food future that we all need. In this new video from Foodwise, you’ll hear from graduates from our Foodwise Teens program and next-generation farmers at Foodwise farmers markets.
“I love working here,” says Luzaneth Garcia, a graduate of the Foodwise Teens program who currently works at Oya Organics. “I believe it’s important for young people, especially at my age, to become food conscious. Also, you get to learn more about your community. You get to become part of your community, which I think is really important.” |
