Farmers Market Competes to be Number One

Posted:

By Winston Whitehurst

A Fresno State farmer's market needs your help to be recognized as the country's best.

Gibson Farm Market is competing to be America's favorite.

The market began as a food stand in the 80's, and has since become a place where students grow, harvest, and sell food.

The market also features award-winning wine, and would receive $5,000 if they win.

They say even if they don't win, they're proud to serve their customers.

"We started from a small food stand on this same corner. Now today, we're this facility. We love our customers, we appreciate all our customers, and all the profits go back to the students to help further their education. So we greatly appreciate that," says assistant cashier, Joseph Rodrigues.
