High Point official unaware of state funds for farmers markets
Bo Morgan, High Point Parks and Recreation Director, says he did not know state special legislation provided funds for Cumberland County, Western North Carolina and Carrboro Farmers Markets. The grants require local matching funds, and Morgan questions the need for state aid or advisory services for High Point Market. He notes parking charges and location concerns but says no grant would alleviate these issues. The Carrboro market is contrasted with High Point’s market in size and purpose.
