Greetings everyone! The weather forecast for tomorrow is a little questionable, but as of Friday afternoon we are planning on holding the Farmers & Artisans Market as usual tomorrow from 9AM-1PM on North Union and Cambridge Streets. If we wake to rain or a threatening forecast, we will cancel the Market and will leave a cancellation message on our office voicemail (508-228-3399), on Facebook and Twitter. Let’s hope for clear skies and another Market day tomorrow – hope to see you there!

The Fall 2011 edition of Edible Cape Cod features a wonderful article about Sustainable Nantucket, our Programs and efforts within the community. Written by Nantucket native Susan Fernald, the article highlights our COMMUNITY AGRICULTURE PROGRAM, FARM TO SCHOOL PROGRAM, Nantucket Grown ™ brand and much more. A digital version of the magazine can be found on the Edible Cape Cod web site, and hard copies of the magazine can be found in businesses on the Cape – all listed here.
Our thanks to Susan and Edible Cape Cod!
