Fighting Food Apartheid with a Farmers Market & More
April Jones and her community were shocked when their two neighborhood grocery stores suddenly closed without warning. She recalled hearing Leah Penniman say, “If you’re looking for someone to save you, I’m here to tell you they’re not coming, and you’re going to have to save yourself.” So, April and a farmer friend founded the Pinehurst Farmers Market in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, to bring healthy food to their community.
April offered to help others start similar ventures in their communities. You can reach her at elloie18@aol.com or find the Pinehurst Farmers Market on Instagram and Facebook @pinehurstfarmersmarket and on Twitter @PinehurstMarket.
