There was an article this week in our region's Seattle Magazine, which
asked the question "How many farmers' markets are too many???" The article
is very much geared towards Seattle and King County in particular, but I think
it's a really interesting question in general. The original article is
here:
I imagine these kinds of conversations are going on not just here but in
other areas around the country. Of particular note in my own county (which
is the next county north from King County), there are not one but two groups
right now trying to put together a game plan for a year-round, indoor,
all-day-every-day farmers market similar to our southern neighbor the Pike Place
Market. Jury's out on whether either of them will succeed, for a wide
variety of reasons. To be honest I'm not sure what to think about how many
would be too many markets. There's pro's and con's. But since so
many folks here are very involved with farmers' markets and other direct
marketing options, I'd love to know what y'all think.
