Highland Micro-Market This Thursday…Eat Local, Buy Local!

I am definitely planning to check this out!  What could be better, short of walking out to your own backyard garden and harvesting some veggies for dinner? 

A Micro-Market, or MiMa, is a community market dedicated to connecting local residents with very local food and goods. The goal of the MiMa is to provide a place for resident customers and producers to gather in support of a community based, sustainable, healthy, and tasty lifestyle.  

The Highland Neighborhood MiMa will be held on Thursday afternoons from 2 to 6 pm, beginning on May 14, 2009, on the patio of Generous Servings Cooking Classes and Cafe (3801 West 32nd Avenue, Denver).

Customers will be able to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables grown and goods created in the neighborhood. In addition, the MiMa offers a central location for community supported agriculture (CSA) purchase and pickup, and gives the neighborhood weekly access to additional regionally grown produce, meats, and dairy.
