There sure is a lot to celebrate in Durham this weekend! First, don't forget to thank and spend time with the important women in your life, including your mom, grandma, sister, aunt, best friend - we all know we wouldn't be where we are today without the support of the incredible women in our lives. And we want to also give a huge congratulations to everyone graduating this weekend. Be sure to pick up everything you need for your celebration at the Market tomorrow and swing by the lawn to make a card for mom or your favorite grad!

We're also very, very excited to announce our crowdfunding campaign for the Sprouts Kid's Club.  Last year, children learned about healthy eating, supporting local farmers, and money management in our Sprouts Club at the Wednesday Market. The club will return on Wednesdays and Saturdays this year, but

we need your help to sustain the program through the season. Please consider supporting our crowdfunding campaign and  help us get the word out by e-mailing friends and family or sharing on social media. Thank you in advance for supporting this wonderful community cause! 

Finally, don't forget that we've partnered with Durham Central Park and Food FWD to offer a compost drop-off service at the Market.  The cost for subscribers is $15/month and a collection bin and liners are provided. Subscribers will bring their food scraps to the Market or to Durham Central Park each week and drop everything off at the designated cart, which will be located near the dumpster on Roney Street. Food FWD  will do a compost giveaway semi-annually and will be at the Market this weekend to answer questions and register folks for the program. If you prefer to have your own compost pile at home, Food FWD will be selling buckets for purchase.  We hope you'll participate!
