The Depot and the Office of Sustainability partner for a new farmer’s market

Virginia Commonwealth University students, faculty, staff and community members seeking farm fresh produce and other unique and homemade items have a new option on campus. The Depot Market will be held on the second floor of the VCU School of the Arts Depot every Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., in conjunction with the VCU Office of Sustainability.

What do you hope to accomplish with the market?

Elliott: Trying to be a sustainable homestead, you’ve got to be a creative entrepreneur as well. We’re hoping, here at VCU, to connect with people who want to learn more about sustainability and maybe have products they want to sell at a market.

Donahue: Part of what we hope to do is focus on local produce but also on other artisan goods. You never know what you might find when you come, but you’ll definitely find some delicious, healthy food.

Elliott: We’d love to match up with people at VCU and help people understand where food comes from. And that food can be free if you just [plant] a couple seeds and do a bit of weeding. If we can care for the Earth, it’s going to give back.
