👋 Carlie here. I recently swung by the Crescent City Farmers Market's new location in City Putt's parking lot.
Why it matters: It's a fun way to spend a Sunday morning while also supporting local farmers and businesses.
The big picture: Market Umbrella operates three markets weekly.
- And, for the next few weeks, you can get a $5 token if you go for a walk on the Lafitte Greenway before the Mid-City market on Thursdays.
The intrigue: The markets are experimenting with sponsorships as they prepare for "major federal funding changes."
What I bought: Pupusas, smoothies, dumplings, pea sprouts and honey.
