Join us for an online workshop, "Working Together to Make Markets Welcoming for All: Your Role as a Vendor," on Monday, March 30, 3 - 4:30 pm EST.
Presented by Sagdrina Brown Jalal of SageD Collective, this workshop centers vendors as culture carriers, storytellers, and relationship-builders at farmers markets.
Participants will explore how sharing food traditions with care, avoiding cultural appropriation, and creating welcoming booth environments can deepen customer trust, strengthen community connections, and support long-term sales.
The session emphasizes practical tools vendors can immediately use to support inclusive customer service—both personally and through their booth staff.
⭐️All farmers market vendors who attend the workshop
live will be entered to win a $40 Visa gift card.⭐️
