This year’s Downtown Jamestown Farmers Market (Fridays from 10am to 3pm through October) has done very well at its Foundry Alley location next to the Renaissance Center–so well that there’s no more room to fit interested vendors.

As the 2013 market heads into its final month, now is a good time to think about the future, and how the market might grow and change over the next few years. As the JRC thinks about the market’s future, we want to know what you think.

Click here to take a brief survey about the Farmers Market. Tell us where you think it should be located, when it should operate, the types of vendors you’d like to find there, and anything else on your mind.
