The art of fresh food

Arley’s posterBesides the new Wintertime poster, we’ve been lucky to work with 4 other Providence artists on farmers’ market publicity in 2007. Packed with info about every market on every day of the week in the Providence area, Arley-Rose Torsone silk-screened a basket overflowing with market veggies held firmly in the clutches of a big-biceped arm. And necessarily so, it’s quite the load of veggies!

Gordon Fitch designed and screened a pepper-y print to let Central Falls customers know about the Sunday Pawtucket Farmers’ Market.

Winsor Pop crafted the plate-themed posters that found their way into storefront windows around each of our neighborhood farmers’ markets. Winsor also helped us design invitations for the Local Food Fest in August.

Kandyce Groesbeck created the five-dollar Fresh Bucks coins used by credit card and EBT customers at our summer farmers’ markets. She also helped us with a one-dollar coin that is at the mint for use this winter (more on that soon!).
