SUMMARY:50th Anniversary Ribbon Cutting for Ithaca Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Please join us to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Ithaca Farmers Market with a ribbon cutting ceremony!\n\n\n\nAbout the Ithaca Farmers Market:\n\nThe Ithaca Farmers Market is celebrating its 50th Anniversary this year!\n\n \n\nIn 1973\, a small group of farm and food entrepreneurs put their heads together and came up with the idea for a market that is TOTALLY LOCAL PRODUCTS produced by the vendor within 30 miles of Ithaca. This rule has enabled hundreds of small farm\, food and craft entrepreneurs to launch their businesses. Over the years\, Market businesses have grown\, diversified their offerings\, and expanded into other retail venues. \n\n \n\nThe Ithaca Farmers Market is now one of the most successful in NYS and the country. We draw anywhere from 2000 to 5000 guests from the surrounding counties as well as visitors come from all over the world. \n\n \n\nThe IFM operates as a self-governing cooperative of nearly 130 members. It started out in a parking lot in front of Agway\, then moved to Taughannock Blvd. and\, since 1988\, it has been operating on City land at Steamboat Landing where it is located from April to December. The Market operates year-round\, moving inside Triphammer Marketplace in winter. \n\n \n\nTo celebrate our accomplishments\, the IFM invites you to join the market vendors and customers during a 50th Anniversary Ceremonial Ribbon Cutting being held on Saturday\, May 6\, 10   11 AM\, at Steamboat Landing. \n\n \n\nWe greatly appreciate the support of our community in contributing to our success and look forward to your participation in helping us thrive for another 50 years! \n\n \n\nIn the next 3-5 years\, the Market will be making improvements to our facility and site   better parking and traffic flow\, improved handicap access\, more restrooms\, building repairs and upgrades\, to provide an enjoyable public gathering space for all to enjoy. \n\n \n\nSee you at Market   from the Board and Vendors of IFM
