Farmers Market:

Beijing Organic Farmers Market (Country Fair): The first Country Fair took place in September of 2010.  Since then, the Beijing Farmers' Market has been providing an opportunity for producers and consumers to interact in direct exchange. Consumers can obtain fresh, local food with a transparent history and farmers can obtain a fair price for their high-quality products.  More importantly, personal interactions at the point of sale transform the market into a mechanism for reinforcing common notions of community and about what constitutes ‘good’ food, in every sense of the word.  Find out more on the Beijing Farmers' Market Facebook page (www.facebook.com/farmersmarketbj) or by emailing farmersmarketbj@gmail.com.
