Market Events. The Neighborhood Farmers Markets planned and produced around 20 specialty-crop focused on site events throughout different growing seasons and in seven different neighborhoods. All market events but two (both that had inclement weather) met the goal of increasing shopper counts by 10% on event days, and increasing sales to farmers by 5%. The greatest successes were found in events outside of the peak season, when shoppers might not otherwise be engaged with the markets, and when the emphasis was on using specialty crops in a unique way. For example, the early spring Rhubarb Fest in Columbia City invited shoppers and local businesses to submit savory and sweet recipes and showed the myriad ways rhubarb can be used. Another popular event was a fermentation demonstration in late winter, which showcased how to ferment cabbage into sauerkraut and xxx xxx. Overall, specialty crop-focused market events contributed $95,724 in a day of market sales and an increase of 9986 shoppers. (This was calculated by comparing and averaging the sales change year over year and week over week.) Market total gross sales grew 8% in both 2012 and 2013, and 17% over both years.
Market Events. Columbia City Farmers Market 2012-2013 Special Event Days: Rhubarb Fest (5/16/12 and 5/22/13), Xxxxx Spectacular (7/25/12) and Cherry Tasting and Varieties Guide (7/3/13). Shopper Counts were up 16% - 77%, and sales raised 4% - 48%. The market ended with Vendor Sales up 6% overall. The “shoulder” season event, Rhubarb Fest, did far better to draw in shoppers than an event in peak season when crowds are already shopping the markets. Rhubarb Fest was also a new and novel concept that attracted foodies and newbies alike. The market gross sales grew 11% from 2011 to 2013, $78,578 in sales. Lake City Farmers Market 2012-2013 Special Event Days: Glorious Greens (6/28/12), Apple Days (9/13/12), Zucchini Races (8/22/13), and Apple Days (9/12/13). Shopper counts were up 20% - 68% and sales raised 8% - 28%. The earlier, newer event again fared better as shoppers were introduced to the breadth of greens available at the market. The second year’s Apple Days also benefited from recognition and a wider variety of activities. Vendor Sales were up 7% on average, though the season's gross sales were flat. Magnolia Farmers Market 2012-2013 Special Event Days: Zucchini Races (8/25/12) and Strawberry Celebration (7/13/13). This market was much bigger in 2012 and in a new location, so shopper counts were already up 150-200%. On Zucchini race day, they rose to 221%, with sales up 14% from the week before and up 37% from last season. Vendor Sales were up 12% on average at the end of the season. In 2013, the market continued to gain ground with 28% more shoppers and a 20% increase in sales on the special event day. Market sales grew 66% from 2011 to 2013. University District Farmers Market 2012-2013 Special Event Days: Ready, Set, Go, Cook! (8/11/12). This event is conducted in partnership with the local food bank, so it isn’t strictly specialty crop focused, and the grant did not fully fund the event. Shopper counts were up 9% from the year before and 16% from the week before. Sales also rose proportionately. In Fall 2012 and Spring 2013, there were more “off-season” events: Applelooza (10/20/12), Fermentation Demo (3/16/2013), and Juicing and Fruit Syrups (5/11/13). Shopper counts were up 25% on average on special events days, and sales rose between 8% & 42%. The market was up 18% from 2011. Xxxxxxx Farmers Market 2012-2013 Special Event Days: Glorious Greens (7/6/12), Phruit Phest (8/10/12). Glorious Greens brought in 47% more people than the same time last year, and 77% more ...

Market Events. An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus, known as COVID-19, was first detected in December 2019 and has subsequently spread globally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted, and may continue to result, in significant disruptions to business operations, widespread business closures and layoffs, travel restrictions and closed borders, prolonged quarantines and stay-at-home orders, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, service and event changes, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty that has negatively affected the global economy. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may last for an extended period of time and may result in a sustained economic downturn or recession. The U.S. Federal Reserve and the U.S. federal government have taken numerous measures to address the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and stimulate the U.S. economy. The ultimate effects of these and other efforts that may be taken may not be known for some time. The Federal Reserve has spent hundreds of billions of dollars to keep credit flowing through short-term money markets and has signaled that it plans to maintain its interventions at an elevated level. Amid these ongoing efforts, concerns about the markets’ dependence on the Federal Reserve’s provision of liquidity have grown. The U.S. government has reduced the federal corporate income tax rate, and future legislative, regulatory and policy changes may result in more restrictions on international trade, less stringent prudential regulation of certain players in the financial markets, and significant new investments in infrastructure and national defense. High public debt in the U.S. and other countries creates ongoing systemic and market risks and policymaking uncertainty. A rise in protectionist trade policies, slowing global economic growth, risks associated with the United Kingdom’s departure from the European Union on December 31, 2020, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” and a trade agreement between the United Kingdom and the European Union, the risks associated with ongoing trade negotiations with China, the possibility of changes to some international trade agreements, tensions or open conflict between nations, or political or economic dysfunction within some nations that are major producers of oil could affect the economies of many nations, including the United States, in ways that can...
