Public, private and nonprofit - thrive together. The 100+ farmers and small food businesses that vend with PFM rely on safe, clean Parks to sell their products to local shoppers. We could not do it without Portland Parks & Recreation, join us in voting YES on Measure 26-213.
This Parks Levy will fund maintenance of new parks in the neighborhoods that lack them, expand access to programs for those facing financial challenges and reopen community centers and pools that families rely on.

Without direct sales channels like farmers markets and CSAs, many small farms couldn't have survived this season. Many have been hurt badly, but others have found opportunities in the crisis.

Important story from @MorningEdition with great photos.
"At the start of the 20th century, one in seven farmers in the U.S. was Black. In the decades that followed, however, Black Americans were dispossessed of an estimated 13 million acres of land."

When is a huckleberry not a huckleberry? Turns out, in the American West, just about always. @CrystalLigori came to Lents International Farmers Market for this piece about what we call huckleberries, and what makes them such a special Northwest treat:

Shemanski Park Farmers Market is open today 10-2 with all the bounty of the Northwest summer, like these fresh-picked melons. Then we head to Kenton (N McClellan and Denver) from 3-7 tonight! Come support local food!
Not many trees get obituaries, but one that makes it to 194 years and founds an entire regional industry deserves some recognition.
