Farmers’ Market & Bazaar in Need of Friends’ Support
The Tower Grove Farmers’ Market and Bazaar in St. Louis is not only a community center piece, but a regional one. And the group is candidly joining a nation-wide line of community-minded organizations who are in economic straits and need support.
Understanding that there are many worthy groups asking for assistance these days, the one that organizes the Tower Grove market is asking, in particular, for those who already value what it creates in the St. Louis region — shoppers and friends who stop by, even just twice a season — to consider stepping forward. The support can be monetary or otherwise.

In the otherwise category, the market needs help in the form of:
Supplies: 10′x10′ pop-up tents/canopies for booths; 6′ folding tables, printer paper, recycle bins and outdoor chairs
Volunteerism: It’s an outdoor market; donate time for helping set-up on Saturdays
Spread the word: Got a blog? Work in other media? Help rally community resources.
Become a vendor: Sign-on for a booth at the market and help draw the supportive crowd that already loves what you will bring to the market.
For those who would like to kick-in some financial stability, a one-time $10 donation, if given by each of the more than 200 regular market-goers, would do wonders for shoring up the current moment of crisis.
