The Best Farmer's Markets In Columbus, And What's Changed This Year 🌾

Happy Tuesday! Chelsea here.

I've spent more time this year cooking at home than ever before. Well, my husband has, but I've spent more time eating home-cooked food than ever before. We've been really thinking about what we're eating and where it comes from a lot throughout the pandemic and we've been utilizing the amazing farmers' markets around Columbus to shop locally. If you're looking to get into the Farmers Market action, you've come to the right place.

Here are just some of the artists responsible and if you aren't already following them on Instagram, you should be. They're one talented bunch.

demanding the removal of Columbus City Police from Columbus City Schools, a move many other cities nationwide have made in the past few days. This short speech by writer and CCS alum Hanif Abdurraqib at the rally is such a compelling explanation for why such a move would be welcome.
