Allow Time to Visit the Farmers' Market in the Landmark Ballroom on April 18th!

We're excited that in conjunction with our program In Search of Real Food, featuring Michael Pollan and Marion Nestle, a farmers' market will be open in the Ballroom this Saturday night, downstairs at the Landmark Theater! The Forum has been working closely with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to make this market possible for Forum attendees on program night.

Theater doors will open a little early on Saturday, beginning at 6:30pm, so you can explore the market, or you can visit the market at intermission and after the program.

Please bring cash or checks for purchases. Vendors will hold your purchases for pick-up after the program.

Ten local growers will be selling their products at the theater, including:

Croftburn Farm Meats
Dave and Dee's Mushrooms
Fall Line Farms
Homestead Creamery
Lavender Fields Herb Farm
Manakintowne Specialty Growers
Red Rake Organic Farm
Southern Exposure Seed Exchange
Victory Farms, Inc.
Wild T. Bison Farm

If you don't have tickets yet, it's worth a call to the Forum office (804-330-3993) at the end of this week to see if any subscribers have released tickets for this sold-out program, in which case the seats will be available for sale on a first-come, first-served basis. (The farmer's market will only be open to program ticket holders.)
