Portsmouth Master Gardeners Impact at the Olde Towne Farmers Market
July 2024

In July, we continued to have a positive outreach to customers at the Olde Towne Farmers
Market. Although we missed one week due to storms and were blocked off for one afternoon
by people in line to buy tickets to the Commodore Theater, we still reached 327 people. July
20 was an especially good day when we talked to 189 people and were visited by 2 goats.

We introduced a new spinning wheel game that has proven quite popular. People spin the wheel and are asked a question based on the color they land on. The questions reflect the theme of the month’s library talk. Our first game was based on the July talk on butterflies and bees.
