Description
Join in as Mayor Wu helps kick off the 2022 season at the Roslindale Village Main Street Farmers Market in Adams Park, which is Boston's biggest neighborhood farmers market.
A
A
A
Rvms
is
a
volunteer
driven
organization,
and
this
market
wouldn't
be
possible
without
a
team
of
volunteers.
We
have

adam

are
our
event.
Committee
chairs,
lisa

of
artists
on
burst

manages
the
best

in
boston.
A
A
We
have

make
our
programs
possible
and
free
to
the
public.
Our

I'd

to
give
an
extra
special

It's
fantastic,
I'm
so
grateful
to
anna

all
of
the

putting
this
together,
not

it's
a
model
for
citywide.

of
family
there's
a
lot
of
love
here,
and
I
know
that
one
of
the
aims
is
to
diversify
this
group,
because
we
have
businesses

by
pac-owned,

are
the
majority
now
in
roslindale.
B
So
we
need
your

to
recruit
them
to
be
present
right.
Help
anna

you
know
the
culturally
responsible
way
is

their
stuff.

your
hair
cut.

to
this
beautiful
number
and
the
work
that

going
to
see
throughout
throughout
the
season.

Roslindale

C
D
Thank

so
much
round
of
applause
for
our
chief

economic
opportunity
and
inclusion
shaking
things
up-
and
I
will
I
don't
know
I
don't
really
but
nick
and
I
were
saying
we
don't
really
buy
the
divide,
we're
we're
kind
of
fighting
champions,
both
we're
fighters
and
champions.
So
thank
you,
shagan
for
leading
the
charge
on
all
the
important
fights
and
all
the
important
initiatives
across
the
city.
D
I
want
to
recognize
also
that
there
are
a
couple
other
important
city
leaders
who
I
see
here
is
kate
bennett
still
around
look:
okay,
oh
kate,
bennett,
roslindale
resident
and
director
of
the
boston
housing
authority,
doing
incredible
work
to
make
sure
we
are
deepening
and
maintaining
and
preserving
our
affordable
housing,
that's
so
badly
needed
here
and
across
the
city.
I
see
chris
carter
here,
head
of
our
office
of
new
urban
mechanics,
innovating
and
making
sure
we
are
constantly
thinking
big
and
acting
boldly.
D
D
She's
the
hardest
worker
of
all
of
us
she's
here
on
the
ground,
representing
our
administration's
direct
point
of
contact
for
any
issues
that
roslindale
faces,
as
well
as
being
our
city-wide
liaison
for
african
immigrant
communities,
and
so
she
puts
an
incredible
amount
of
work,
fielding
your
calls
taking
those
ideas
and
then
trying
to
fashion
them
and
craft
them
together
into
bigger
scale
policy
that
we
can
help
help
implement
through
her
leadership.
So
thank
you
for
what
you
do
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
she's
lifted
up.
D
So
I
don't
have
too
much
to
add
except
that.
For
me,
this
is
what
really
marks
the
beginning
of
summer
every
single
year,
we're
so
proud
to
live
in
roslindale,
to
celebrate
this
community
and
to
recognize
what
happens
when
we
can
all
come
together.
This
is
a
space
for
multi-generational,
multilingual,
multicultural,
multi-sector,
collaboration
and
celebration.
D
We
have
a
hub
here
for
everything
that
we
need
for
a
thriving
community,
and
so
every
week
when
I
can,
I
try
to
come
and
just
bottle
up
the
energy
here
in
the
square
to
take
it
out
into
the
city.
This
is
what
we
want
to
see
all
over
boston,
creating
the
platforms
for
everyone
to
get
to
know
each
other
to
run
into
the
unexpected,
to
have
fun
and
most
of
all,
to
build
that
community
connection.
So
we
can
do
big
things
by
getting
the
small
things
right
together.
So
thank
you.
D
So
much
for
your
part
in
this
community
really
really
excited
to
honor.
A
stalwart
of
our
neighborhood
today
as
well.
Joe
pardolecki
and
eggs
have
been
there
for
us
through
thick
and
thin,
and
we
are
I'm
jumping
ahead
in
the
pro.
It's
not
my
job,
but
I'm
just
gonna
steal
a
little
bit
of
the
the
thunder
around
being
able
to
honor
this
incredible
business
and
legacy
and
family
run
endeavor.
D
I
don't
know
how
many
folks
like
me,
the
first
thing
you
did
when
you
moved
into
roslindale,
was
to
head
over
there
to
figure
out
how
we
get
started
and
get
settled.
Every
need
every
opportunity
to
support
community
ace
hardware
and
the
portaleckies
are
there.
So
thank
you
for
all
of
your
hard
work
over
so
many
decades
in
our
neighborhood.
D
E
E
So,
on
behalf
of
the
board
and
everyone
with
roslindale
village
main
street,
we
have
a
plaque
honoring
joe
your
years
of
service
to
our
community
and
in
addition
to
that,
I
also
have
from
councillor
ricardo
arroyo's
office,
a
official
resolution
which
will
be
read
on
tuesday
in
front
of
the
city
council,
recognizing
your
contributions
to
the
roslindale
community.
So.
F
We
had
to
bribe
two
farmers
to
show
up
because
they
didn't
think
they
could
make
a
nickel
coming
here,
only
lose
money.
So
we
had
two
farmers
and
then
we
had
three
farmers
and
by
the
second,
by
time
it
was
the
second
year
things
finally
took
off.
There
was
a
lot
of
work
to
get
the
farmers
market
started,
but
it
makes
me
feel
so
good.
My
heart
is
warm
and
seeing
so
many
lovely
people,
and
so
many
things
going
on
at
the
same
time.
So
I'm
honored
and
I'm
glad
you're
all
here.
