Wanted: Almond Farmers’ Market Vendors

Do you sell almonds at a local farmers’ market? Have you in the past? If so, the Almond Board wants to learn from you and your experience. Consumers shop at farmers’ markets for a variety of reasons, but a common thread is the desire to directly engage with their local food producers. Whether it’s asking where the product was grown, when it was harvested or even about the basics of agriculture, farmers’ markets provide a unique opportunity for dialogue.

Given recent media interest in almonds and the concerns that it has raised, we’d like to better understand the almond-related questions farmers’ market vendors are hearing from their customers. If you are an almond vendor and you can offer any insight into what your customers want to know, please contact Danielle Veenstra before May 15 to share your insights.
