The Alaska Farmers Market Association has awarded the Haines Farmers Market a grant that aims to boost attendance and increase sales for vendors.
Market manager Melina Shields said the $1,150 grant will go toward printing limited edition t-shirts and tote bags, paying a local artist for a new design for next year’s t-shirts and posters and placing an ad in the 2019 Haines Visitors Guide.
The last farmers market of the season will be Saturday, Sep. 29 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
