Montgomery County Commissioners Support Farmers' Markets!

CreekSide Co-op, which operates the CreekSide Co-op Farmers' Market at High School Park, was one of numerous Montgomery County farmers' markets which questioned draft regulations from the Montgomery County Health Department which threatened to have a negative impact on farmers' markets. On March 11, the Montgomery County Commissioners agreed that the Health Department had gone too far with its proposed regulations. This was a great example of community members presenting a reasoned argument to local government and having that government listen! Read more about the issue at this link.
