What is your vision for High Point?  
Here's your chance to help craft our City's future

 On Saturday, April 22^nd the City of High Point will have representatives at the opening weekend of the Farmer’s Market asking for your input for the 2045 Comprehensive Plan.   The Comprehensive Plan is a long-range planning document that will provide High Point with a vision for the future and a path towards that vision.   The plan was kicked off last week with a series of four open houses at which attendees completed a series of four exercises to identify the community’s core values.  The open house activities have been converted into an online survey so that the city can continue to gather input from anyone who lives, works, or plays in High Point.  At the Farmer’s Market, you will be given information on how to access the online survey.  The survey will remain open through Sunday, May 14^th.  Please visit our website to take the survey and register for Notify Me to hear about future events highpoint2045.org.  

Please help us spread the word to your friends, neighbors, and colleagues about our online public survey because the more input we get, the better our vision and plan will be for our future!

Bring your grown-up to the Farmers Market table to find out about the Power of Produce (PoP), a new program we have this Market season.  PoP participants will receive $3 in PoP tokens each Saturday to spend at one of our food or plant vendors.  You can spend them then, or save them up each week to buy something bigger...like a watermelon!  You'll learn about selecting fresh and healthy food AND about saving money and planning your purchases.  PLUS -- the first 25 PoP kids each Saturday will get a take home craft or activity.

The PoP program is made possible with funding from the Greater High Point Food Alliance. For more information about PoP, e-mail Sarah at sarah.nareau@highpointnc.gov.  Or, you can call her at (336) 883-3667.

 FYI...

The Farmers Market accepts EBT (SNAP) and offers a Double the Bucks program thanks to generous donations by Bethany Medical and the Lenny Peters Foundation. 

How does Double the Bucks work?  Bring your EBT card to the Farmers Market table and we'll double whatever amount you put on your EBT card.  For example, $5 on your EBT card = $10 in Farmers Market tokens.

Plus -- Guilford Community Cares Network clients can use their GCCN orange cards and a photo ID to get $15 in fresh produce each Saturday.

Each Saturday, Friends of the High Point Public Library offer gently used books for sale.  Hardbacks are $1 and paperbacks are 50 cents.  All proceeds support library projects and programs.

We are dog friendly!  Well-behaved dogs on leash are welcome.  Stop by the Farmers Market table with your pup for pats, a treat, and free poop-bag holder.
