Allan,
I don't know about any governor's son, but Bob Pierson was responsible for
the development of many Philadelphia farmers' markets. He has a good
knowledge of both the lobbying strategy to establish a market in a community
and written standards for grower participation. I haven't talked with Bob
in several years, but I know his latest hangout is an organization called
"Farm to City."

Two other organizations involved in Phila.-area farmers markets--

Finally, you may have met Paul Hauser at PASA conferences. Paul built the
West Chester growers' market, which is likely closest to the model you're
envisioning. I can send you Paul's number is you need it.
