And now, proudly introducing…Know your farmer! This is a weekly series that will be featured in local papers and shared here as well. The unique thing about our market is that you can only sell it if you grow it…so you can really know your farmer and learn about how your food is raised. We hope you will get to know your farmers as you shop, and learn even more through these interviews. First up: Chris Wilson aka “the lamb lady”
