The One At The Daybreak Farmer's Market
Exploring Daybreak: Farmers Market, Unique Vendors, and Community Spirit
Hey listeners! Just Blane and Becks are back with a special edition of Radio Daybreak, and this time, it’s all about the Farmers Market! Join us as we dive into the vibrant atmosphere of Daybreak’s Farmers Market, meet some incredible vendors, and celebrate the community spirit that makes this event so unique.
First, Blane shares his experiences from a summer spent at the market, meeting locals and exploring the diverse products on offer. Although Becks has been busy with real estate, her presence has been missed by the community. They both give a special shoutout to Laura Gaillard from Empowered Community Markets, who has been instrumental in organizing these events and much more.
Next, we meet some fascinating vendors, starting with Lee Gray and his vintage 1952 Cockshutt tractor. We then chat with Ethne from Utah Infinity Gardens, who shares her journey of transforming fallow land into a thriving urban farm. We also catch up with Luke from Swirls Cinnamon Rolls, whose delicious treats sell out quickly each week.
We then encounter Rachanda from African Everything and Konti Goods, who talks about her fair trade collective supporting artisans from eight different countries. Her vibrant products and inspiring mission are a testament to the market’s diverse offerings.
Finally, we wrap up with a musical performance by local talent Mike Tam, whose soulful tunes have been a hit at the market. Blane even tries out some dog treats from Marina’s Yip Yap Treat Shack, showcasing the entrepreneurial spirit that thrives in Daybreak.
