Meet the interns who gave us hope for the future. 🌞🧡
This incredible group of young adults from Staples High School spent their summer going all in, getting their hands dirty alongside local farmers, supporting vendors like BadassBagels, and heavily contributing to everything that makes the Westport Farmers Market run behind the scenes.
Their creativity, initiative, and enthusiasm made a meaningful impact at every turn, and we are so incredibly grateful for each and every one of them.
As Lori, our Executive Director, puts it:
“These kids engaged on farms, asked pertinent questions and actually dug deep, not just in the soil, but into the internship, to really understand what it takes to run a market and to know who grows your food.”
We couldn’t have said it better. Thank you for being such an important part of our team this summer. You are the future of local food, and it’s a bright one. 💙🌱
