Dear Students and Interested Vendors,
As the returning Farmer’s Market Commissioner, I welcome you on behalf of ASUCI to participate in our upcoming Farmer’s Markets!
As slated, the Farmer’s Market is a great opportunities to sell to our vast and diverse student body. The Farmer’s Market takes place on Ring Mall Road beginning at Anteater Plaza, leading up to our highly populated Student Center. The Farmer’s Market will consist of non-agriculture and agriculture products for sale. I look forward to working with our past vendors as well as bringing in new and upcoming sellers to cater to our students!
See you at the Farmer’s Market!
Lena Hu
ASUCI Farmer’s Market Coordinator
