State of the Market
The Delmar Market made an impact in the Governor Coumo's State of the State address this year. The image below is from his address on January 5, 2011.
Said the Governor's Office: "To help revitalize urban areas and develop markets for New York farmers, Governor Cuomo will seek ways to expand the presence of locally-grown food markets in urban areas. This will include working to revitalize the Hunts Point terminal Produce Market in the Bronx, which supplies a large portion of the produce for New York City's and the region's food consumption, and creating a "Share NY Food" Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program that develops partnerships with farmers and residents to expand access and resources and make fresh food available to consumers in urban areas."
Also, listen in to the WAMC Roundtable broadcast discussing not only the Delmar Farmers Market with Market Manager Paul Tick, but the Mohawk-Hudson Land Conservancy and the upcoming Albany County Rail Trail (click here to listen to the MP3,or go to the WAMC website for more ).
