Cool Video on Farmer's Markets

As long as we're talking Farmer's Markets, check out this You Tube video. It addresses how farmers' markets improve communities, support farmers and increase access to fresh, nutritious food in cities.

Philanthromedia, a group that produces interactive content for donors and foundations, created it -- and it can be found on YouTube or on Philanthromedia's own site.

If neither of the embedded links above work with your browser, you can copy and paste the following URL to view the video.
