For some time
now, we have been working to open a Farmers Market that will make
fresh produce available to our communities for a reasonable price.
I'm so pleased to announce that the idea is becoming a reality.
The
old Buick dealership that was located at 19th and State
streets in East St. Louis is in the process of being renovated, and
converted into a Farmers’ Market that should be completed and ready
for business by mid-September. It will accommodate at least a dozen
or more businesses, in addition to the market area.
This
facility permits us to incorporate the need for fresh, healthy food
for our families with our other goal of business ownership by people
within our community.
Below
is an architectural rendering of our Farmers' Market. We'll
keep you posted on our progress.
