Market Garden Diaries: What’s Actually Selling

Monday, July 27 | 12:00–1:00 PM

Join us for a relaxed, informal coffee chat focused on the realities of organic market gardening and the ever-changing question: What’s actually selling? This virtual session is a space to connect with fellow growers, share what customers are looking for this season, and talk through the crops, trends, and strategies helping market gardens thrive.

This Month’s Topic is: What’s Actually Selling

From staple vegetables and specialty crops to CSA demand, pricing, market trends, and customer habits, this discussion will explore what’s moving at farmers’ markets, farm stands, and local food hubs — and what growers are learning along the way.

Whether you’re running a small garden plot or scaling up production, come ready to exchange ideas, ask questions, and learn from others navigating the season alongside you.

No presentations, no pressure — just good conversation.

Bring your coffee and join us!

We’ll be joined by Sean Smith of Crooked Farmz and Kristine Hammel, with more speakers to be announced, who will share insights from their experiences in market gardening. The discussion will be moderated by Dr. Erica Shelley, helping guide a lively exchange on all things organic growing.
