Pains me to hear that PHX has been so inundated with "pretend" farmers'
markets, particularly since I just mailed off that buy-local calendar to my
brother who lives down there with his young, goes-through-a-lot-of-groceries
family. My first thought was also to start your own market with the high
standards listed below. Quite an easy thing to say, a whole 'nuther thing
to execute successfully. If you have even the slightest interest in
creating that market, and I hope you do, I work with several folks up here in
the Seattle area who have done exactly that. If you'd like I could put you
in touch with them and they could perhaps help you put together some kind of
game plan, then sort through all the 1001 issues and details to get a viable,
competitive market going down there. I believe there are others on this
list who have also created those kinds of markets, tho' I don't happen to
remember who they are (sorry!). Hopefully they will also contribute ideas
and suggestions for how to get started. Please let us know if you do go
down that road; you'll have a near-instant cheerleading section and no shortage
of "been there/tried that" input.
