Amy Godsoe announced that nearly 45k was raised which is 10k more than last year.  Are we really in a recession? Should not donations go down?

Think Big Montgomery and make things happen, thats what the organizers, sponsors and participants did and look at the end result. Not only was alot of loot raised for a good cause but look at the GREAT time and community fellowship that was shared  by all in attendance.

Collaborate and proliferate!

This is the first group of pictures presented in music video format and a video tribute to the dogs in attendance can be found here. Keep checking back as more awesome footage will be added over the next couple weeks. There will be more specially enhanced photos and videos and GreatNewsMontgomery.com has agreed to do a unique video of the event to be released at the October awards luncheon.

Held July 11 ,2009 . Excerpt from MAJ and Alvin Benn…

Peach growers and tomato pickers from across central Alabama were kept busy Saturday during the 40th anniversary of Farmers Market Day.

Mixed in with the produce selling and musical entertainment was recognition of talented youngsters who have won competition to represent Alabama’s peach, watermelon and other agricultural interests.

A huge crowd turned out at the State Farmers Market on Federal Drive in Montgomery to honor Alabama farmers by purchasing their produce and other items ranging from goat cheese to flowers.

Farmers Market Day is a joint effort of the Alabama Cooperative Extension System, the Alabama Farmers Federation and the Alabama Department of Agriculture and Industries….end excerpt
