Committee explores joint Clifton Park–Ballston farmers market and town‑wide farmstand map
Summary
The committee discussed using a farmers market to connect local producers, proposed a joint Clifton Park–Ballston market, and agreed to begin a subcommittee to create a town‑wide farmstand and farm map and request a webpage from the Town Clerk.
The committee discussed using the Farmers' Market to better connect local farmers and agricultural businesses. Isabel Prescott, a guest from Riverview Orchards and the Clifton Park FPP committee, offered the idea of Clifton Park and Ballston working together on a Farmers' Market and proposed a town‑wide farmstand and farm map; the committee agreed a subcommittee will begin that work.
The group also discussed creating an agricultural website or webpage to make information more accessible to farmers and residents and asked Town Clerk Carol Gumienny to set up a page on the Town's website. Follow‑up tasks include developing the map, identifying active farms and farm stands, and starting outreach materials.
