This post is a little different. I want to recognize a little known contribution of the Market to the Ann Arbor community. Many of the vendors regularly contribute their excess produce to Food Gatherers. Michael Scott of Food Gatherers stated that a typical pick-up from the Market is 1,000 to 2,000 pounds during the harvest season.
Duke Donahee selects tomatoes . . .
and puts them in the Food Gatherers boxes.
Valerie of Jeff Nemeth's farm also packs a Food Gatherers box . . . .
as does Tina Koski
Micheal Scott picks up the boxes from the vendors stalls . . . .
and loads them into the Food Gathers truck.
Our thanks to Food Gathers and the many vendors that support them.
