History, Heritage and a Fond Farewell
Saturday July 6th will be my last day as your market manager. I thought it fitting to say goodbye, and hand over the reins to the next generation on the market’s birthday. I have devoted the last eighteen years of my life to the revitalization of the City of Easton, and to the market I love so dearly. It has been such an immense honor to do this work in the City I call home. I was fortunate to spend my first years as Assistant Main Street Manager, working alongside the amazing Kim Kmetz. Downtown Easton was a very different place in 2006 and we had to work hard to effect, even the smallest changes, and to convince folks to love Easton, even half as much as much as we did. I knew from my first interaction with the Easton Farmers’ Market that it had the potential to be a game changer for Easton; that it had the power to transform our community; to be an economic driver, and more importantly a place of pure goodness and joy. I threw my entire being into rebuilding the market. I said YES to everything. I knew in my heart that the feeling and vibe we created at the Easton Farrmers’ Market would spread, and soon that feeling would be synonymous with Easton as a whole.
