It’s time to “Love Your Farmers Market”
June 19, 2009
Go to www.care2.com/farmersmarket to vote for your favorite farmers market.
The “Love Your Farmers Market” contest is a joint effort between Care2 and LocalHarvest.org to raise awareness of local foods, family farms, and community farmers markets and to reward America’s favorite farmers market through this fun, summer-long contest. Care2 will award $5,000 to the farmers market that receives the most votes. In addition to the grand prize, Care2 is sponsoring a weekly prize of $250 for a participating market chosen at random (not based on votes) for the duration of the contest. Care2 will also award a total of $7,000 to the four runners-up in the contest. In total, Care2 will give away over $15,000 in cash to farmers markets across the country!
During Care2 and LocalHarvest’s “Love Your Farmers Market” contest, people can vote for their favorite farmers market to help them win. Voting is free and everyone can help with the click of a mouse. From Friday, June 19th to Thursday, September 17th individuals across the country will be able to visit http://www.care2.com/farmersmarket to vote and show their farmers market some love.
