Why it’s listed

Two specific filters: 50 years of continuous operation and the Alliance’s Farm-to-School educational program. The Farm-to-School tie connects [[the-market|the market]]‘s retail function to K-12 food education in Davis JUSD — a structural commitment to the next generation of eaters that most farmers-market operators don’t take on.
