See you Wednesday!

The time is here—THIS WEDNESDAY is the first market of the season! 🎉

We are celebrating the season kick-off from 4:30-7:30 pm at Miles Park Band Shell (next to the Livingston Civic Center). We’ve got a full lineup of amazing vendors and everything you need to start your summer right. Come shop for fresh, local produce, meats, baked goods, flowers, and unique handmade items. Plus, enjoy live music, delicious food trucks, craft beer, and so much more! 🍓🍞🌸🎶

Patrick B Ray, whose soulful country and folk songwriting draws from the Texas troubadour tradition—think h***y tonk and Western swing with a West Texas heart—will be bringing the market to life with live tunes! A huge thank you to Fairfield by Marriott Livingston Yellowstone and Home2 Suites by Hilton for being our exclusive music sponsors again this season. 🎵

will be offering an edible marshmallow sheep activity 🐑, and then swing behind the bandshell for free family yoga with Mountain Glow Yoga from 5:30–6:00 pm! 🧘‍♀️

We continue to offer two food access programs: the Senior Farmers Market Nutritional Program (SFMNP) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) with double SNAP benefits. Please visit the Mission Park Tent (directly across from the Headquarters booth) for more info on the available food programs. 🧑‍🌾

A huge thank you to our Presenting Sponsors: Edward Jones – July Hardesty and Bloom Montana and our Market & Community Partners: Expedition Church, Park County Environmental Council, and Happy Trash Can Curbside Composting !

See you Wednesday at the market!

We have been seeing, hearing and 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 this rise over the last decade and choosing to do work to stand against it rather than stall in despair.

Misogyny is an increasing factor in far-right attacks, but it often goes unnoticed.

We often feel this tension, described well in these slides, in our "Men's Work" programs.
Also worth a Men's Work listen today are Javier Bardem's comments at Cannes.
