Federal bucks reap a bumper crop of farmers markets

The Washington Times reports:

Know your farmer, know your food, but most importantly, know where your tax dollars are going.

As part of first lady Michelle Obama’s healthy eating initiative, the U.S. Department of Agriculture now provides over $15 million in federal grants to subsidize farmers markets across the country, promoting local and organic foods to communities where demand is already high.

The great moments of government.
