To the many supports of the 17th Street Farmers' Market:
Many comments have been made regarding a recent article written by Deveron Timberlake and published by Style Weekly entitled "Pie Eyed In South Side". Though the statement was brief, the damage was done to our historic market. With this, a major outpouring of support reached the publishers of Style Weekly and several of these statements have been published in the "Letters To The Editor" section.
On behalf of the Richmond Farmers' Market Advancement Association, and Shockoe Bottom community, I would like to thank all the customers, vendors, and community marketplaces that have stood up for the 17th Street Farmers' Market. The display of support has shown the City of Richmond the 17th Street Market is truly cherished and considered a part of the team of community markets in the Metro area.
With your continued support, the 17th Street Farmers' Market is again becoming a true focal point of the community. Please visit the market often and watch us grow!
Warmest Regards,
Scott Sibley
Chairman

Folks signed your petition to take charge because they recognized how unnecessarily sucky the 17th Street Market has been. So stop wasting time on this crap, check out what the successful markets are doing, and just give the people what they want in a farmer's market. Before you know it the compliments will come pouring in. Then you can start getting defensive about it.
