Episode 297: Sagdrina Brown Jalal: Juneteenth is Just a Beginning
Juneteenth is coming up, are you ready? With the mid-week holiday coming up, we're seeing observances and events scheduled this coming weekend also the following Saturday and Sunday, June 22nd and 23rd, in addition to June 19th itself. Sagdrina Brown Jalal joined us last year to discuss how to honor that day at our markets. This year we'll be amplifying the collective Juneteenth awareness campaign that Sagdrina is leading for the Farmers Market Coalition. Listen in to our brief conversation about this year's plans, and to this spotlight episode originally broadcast in June of 2023, about:
• Simple ways to make your farmers market more inclusive
• Supporting local organizations already doing the work
• How markets are putting the Anti-Racist Toolkit to work
• Keeping the momentum going as Black Business Month and National Farmers Market Week intersect
