We’re not quite sure what it says about Wallingford that the biggest kerfuffle we’ve got going is on whether and where to put a Farmers Market. Nice, ya know? Some places, everyone’s up in each other’s grill about abortion rights, immigration, health care and gun control, but in Wallingford, it’s radicchio and rutabaga that gets everyone hot under the collar.
Well, the saga continues. Zach Lyons alerts us that there will be a community meeting tomorrow, Wednesday January 19th from 7:00 – 8:30 pm in the Conference Room of Solid Ground 1501 North 45th “to update the Wallingford community about re-siting efforts for Wallingford Farmers Market for the 2011 market season.” Apparently, three sites are being evaluated and they are hoping to report on the viability of those sites at the meeting.
Which three sites? Sorry, Zach’s mum: “This whole process is delicate, as we saw at the end of the season last year when two potential sites blew up in our faces when the rumor mill got going. We needs to meet with key people before anything goes public,” he said.
But Zach, what about our radicchio?!
