You make it sound like I may not be cool now. Should I start wearing the bright fluorescent clothing to the market? Hot pink t-shirts for all the staff!!!

Tim – I knew you in the ’80′s! I had the Cyndi Lauper hairstyle and acid wash stirrup pants. Our parents must have loved the fluorescent-colored clothing – they could always find us! You were always so diligent in school – remember typing class: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

They can be significant marketing advantage to specializing your offering, especially in a crowded market (pun intended). Being able to say something like “no processed foods” or “real foods, no trinkets” can be a powerful differentiator. I go to farmers markets for fresh food, not jam, cookies or crafts. There are lots of existing options out there if I am looking for those items, I don’t see the benefit to the market in duplicating that offering. Lead with what you do best and forget the rest…and then scream it from the rooftops.

Our focus is real food from real farmers.

There will be other vendors (some artisans) but the focus is on food! Local Alberta food from local Alberta farmers.

I like the new focus and vision of this, but what about differentiating from the other markets in the south even more. The current market is large and unwieldy to me, filled with a lot of trinkets, when what I really want to go to a farmers market for is food, that’s all. Crafts are fine, but there are other farmers markets that do that, so why not just focus on good food? The notion that the same people that want good local food also want jewelry and art may be a bit tired. I think there may be other consumers looking for a place to get good food quickly and be done with it. The quote from the documentary “Fresh” says it all, “what Americans fear most is inconvenience”.
