Thank you to everyone who attended An Incredible Feast this past Sunday--you guessed it, it was indeed Incredible. All this feasting helped to raise $35,000 to support Washington Farmers and Farmers Markets. We so appreciate everything you do to help grow the Good Farmer Fund and our Neighborhood Farmers Markets.
