Lots of markets and orgs want to do anti-racism work, but paying people for this work is important and finding funding can be tough.
There are ways to rethink existing grant opportunities and get creative about funding sources:

Thank you for supporting our nation's farmers markets, @SecVilsack @usda!

It’s National Farmers Market Week and @USDA is recognizing the crucial role farmers markets play in our food system. Farmers markets connect producers and consumers through fresh, locally grown produce and support the health and well-being of our communities.

In 2009, six women shared a vision of connecting members of the Savannah, Georgia, community with locally grown food while addressing food access issues. This idea created the Forsyth Farmers Market. See the impact the market has had on its community: https://t.co/t6S5F5vtsj
