We hosted a Farm-to-Family free farmers market a few weeks ago at our Connection Center in Bellevue. In collaboration with Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, we gave out 8,000 pounds of fresh produce to 400 families. It was great to see everyone on a sunny Friday and help feed our communities. Our free farmers markets will continue through November and we'll be back in Bellevue on Aug. 14!
