Vendors in the Local Media
Since December 2022, we have welcomed KOIN’s Elizabeth Dinh to speak to the vendors at our farmers markets. Elizabeth and her camera crew have braved the freezing weather of December and a 100-degree heat wave in August to interview these vendors, their stories and the fruits of their labor to feature in her Northwest Grown series.
Big thanks to Elizabeth and KOIN for spotlighting these amazing regional food growers and producers for all the world to see!
We hope to continue to have Elizabeth talk to more vendors.
