Part 1: In this episode, I am joined by Jimmy Cesario-DeBiasi and Carolyn Snell. Jimmy is the Director of Programs for the Maine Federation of Farmers' Markets and Carolyn is the Chair of the Farmers’ Market Association in Portland, Maine and a fourth-generation, farmer at Snell Family Farm located in Buxton, Maine.
