Bakelite Supports Inaugural Taylorsville Farmers Market
TAYLORSVILLE, Mississippi – As part of our Taylorsville site’s community engagement project, Bakelite helped support Taylorsville’s inaugural farmers market, which promotes sustainability. Behind the rows of produce, busy vendors, and eager customers, farmers markets are a bustling hub of sustainability. Local farmers deliver fresh, local food to a growing number of shoppers demanding food that is not only healthy, but environmentally friendly. However, farmers markets take sustainability a step further. They also ensure farmers can make a living off sustainably grown food, while providing an outlet where communities can find and purchase their products.
Bakelite funded the signage to drive awareness of the new Taylorsville market, which will be held the first and third Saturday of each month through the fall.
The kickoff market saw a fantastic turnout, with several vendors selling out of their items early.
