The Ukiah Library’s Kids’ Farmers Market!
The cutest Farmers Market in Mendocino County
I wanted to share this program that the Ukiah Library has been doing for 35 years!
“The Ukiah Branch Library invites all children ages five to 17 to join us in our 35th year of hosting the Kids’ Farmers Market! This annual summer bake sale and market is designed as a learning opportunity for young farmers and entrepreneurs to learn the skills of sales and bartering, cash-based math, design, gardening, and display to create, grow, market, and sell products.”
Last summer, the Library established a partnership with the City of Ukiah and now it’s held in the plaza instead of in the small area outside the library.
Thanks for sharing Megan! I love that it’s a kids’ farmer’s market – it offers the same community needs that a normal farmer’s market would, but also empowers youth to develop skills and participate in ways they normally wouldn’t get to.
