In the meantime the Victorian Farmers Market Association need your help with their Slogan Competition - please see details on how to enter.

We need your help!

We're looking for a catchy slogan to use as we spread the good word about Victorian farmers' markets far and wide. The old gray matter's a bit rusty at the moment so we thought we'd ask for your help and offer a prize to the best suggestion!

Simply send us a slogan that encapsulates the joy of farmers' markets in about 10 words or less. For example: 

I heart farmers' markets
Fresh from the farm
 

The best slogan will not only start to pop up in all sorts of places but the creator will win a years subscription to Slow Magazine. 
 

Please send entries to website@vicfarmersmarkets.org.au by 5pm, Monday August 30th. We'll post the top five slogans and their submitters on our website, and annouce the winner there too.
 

Happy slogan-making!
