Q: What is your name and role here at the Farmers Market?

A: I'm Jamie, and I'm a vendor.

Q: Why do you choose to sell here at this farmers market?

A: Because I can get good business and have customers that come here every Sunday who always buy my food. 

Q: When did you first start coming here?

A: About a month and a half ago. I used to go to the Farmers Market in Hillcrest on Sundays, but I wasn't getting the same amount of business I usually do. I tried La Jolla, and it worked out.

Q: Do you garden at home? Why or why not?

A: Haha, I guess so. It's my buisness...

Q: How did you find out about this place?

A: I was looking to relocate and one of the people at another farmers market suggest I try here.

Q: What would be go advice to get other to do what you do?

A: I think people need to realize that when they shop here, they get amazing food for a good price compared to the supermarket. Also, they help others in their own community.

When I visited the farmers market, it was just about the way I expected it to be. I was surprised, though, because not only was there people selling food, but also people selling crafts and household decorations, like a craft fair.

I don't think I'll support these farmers market because I bought and apple from the person I interviewed, and not only was it expensive, but it was sour. Seriously, it tasted horrible and it was a rip off.

These locations fit into our essential question because farmers markets are sustainable since they support the local farmers. Instead of supporting farmers over seas, we decrease the dependance on other countries. Also, we can help show people how farmers markets can help our sustainability.
