CONCERNING SUPPORTING FARMERS' MARKETS IN COLORADO.
AI Summary
This joint resolution supports farmers' markets in Colorado by urging the Colorado Department of Agriculture and the Colorado Farmers Market Association to continue and strengthen their partnership. This collaboration aims to provide the necessary expertise, financial resources, and other support to both new and existing farmers' market managers. The resolution highlights the importance of farmers' markets for increasing access to locally grown, healthy, and diverse produce, supporting Colorado's agricultural businesses and local economies, and notes that many market managers are volunteers who require significant support to handle complex tasks like event planning, permitting, and food safety. The "Double Up Food Bucks" program, which increases the value of federal food assistance benefits for purchasing fresh produce at participating markets, is also mentioned as a key benefit provided by these markets.
