We apologize that a recent request for proposals (RFP) didn't reach many farmers and food producers who may have been eligible. We've heard your feedback, and we recognize that more could have been done to include the small businesses who make up this city's vibrant local food community. This is a new program for the City, and as with anything new, we're still working through some hiccups along the way.

Thank you to Sonia Flunder-McNair and Urban Wholistics for taking the time to meet with us today. We're taking her feedback seriously and using it to improve as we go.

To help course-correct for the events scheduled on Saturdays through the end of October, we are opening an opportunity for more local food producers and providers to participate. If you're interested, please fill out the form below, and a member of the city team will follow up with more information about the application requirements.

We remain committed to uplifting our small, local businesses. That means our work has to include removing barriers that keep local producers from competing for contracts like this one.
