As of noon today (Thursday) the Ithaca Farmers Market is still in second place in the American Farmland Trust polling for "America's Favorite Farmers' Market." (in the large market category) The bad news is that it is only 30 votes ahead of the third place market, located in Salt Lake City, Utah! If you have not yet voted and want to support the hometown market, you have just two days to do so.
