		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always wanted to write a book about the best farmers markets in the America. A travel guide for foodies and locavores that would be part travelogue &#8211; because I do plan my travel around farmers markets &#8211; and part guide-book for those needing basic details, facts, and photos.
I would cover the biggest market in every city, and there is always one big market. A place that draws all the attention and energy of the city, which includes live music, civic issues and crafts, kids and petting zoos. These are ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I first started this non-profit in May 2009, the most proffered advice was about how hard it would be to get tax exempt status. That turned out to be the easy part.
In 6 months we received tax exempt status to operate as a community focused non-profit. A fantastic benefit that I hope will bear fruit in the years to come.
The hard part became the most important part: learning how to impact change.
This topic is very controversial in the non-profit world. Some would say that you need a large national ...]]></description>

As we say goodbye to our favorite vendors it&#8217;s time to prep for Winter. Here is a brand new list of Winter markets, updated from last year, and now including our local coops and organic markets (bottom half of the page).

After browsing the news articles I came upon the following photo created by a scientist already in the Gulf studying Dead Zones:

So, what&#8217;s worse the Dead Zone or the Oil Spill?
At first, it may be hard to tell. The Oil Spill is continuing to grow and may not be stopped for a few months. The oil will be washing ashore ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m attending a forum on IT Government Leadership learning about the NextGen program from the FAA. This billion dollar program is modernizing our airline transportation through GPS, weather forecasting, digitizing the analog, and much much more.
The environmental impact of this program primarily concerns fuel use. Doing so though updating and simplifying flight routes, allowing for glide paths to landings (instead of stop-n-go). The net benefit should mean lower fuel costs for airlines, maybe lower ticket prices, and definitely less fuel use. This picture highlights the expected fuel and time savings ...]]></description>

Cost
Every newbie to the markets talks about cost. I call it the supermarket hangover. They have trouble understanding why they should pay more. Isn&#8217;t food at the supermarket and the farmers market the same?
Definitely not. The supermarket food is priced correctly, cheap because it is cheap food. It has ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A touchpoint is the moment when a person interfaces with your product. This can occur before, during, or after a transaction. In the case of the internet it can occur on your own site or any number of other secondary sites.
In the world of customer service touchpoints are intensely important. They can often define a customer&#8217;s first impression of the the product and cause them to become immediately loyal or offended. For this reason it is important to know and understand all the ways a person can interact with your ...]]></description>

When I heard this I excitedly ventured out to our closest diner with a group of colleagues. We were ready for some good old fashioned home cooking and jukebox heroes (yes they do have them!). Trouble was not far away though&#8230;
The first thing one notices at the new Silver Diner are the advertisements all over the diner for the new local food. The host and server make sure to mention it. The menus ...]]></description>
