David Bolduc and Richard Foy describe their involvement in the initiation of the first farmers market in Boulder, which took place on the courthouse lawn in the mid-1970s before the Pearl Street Mall was built. Starting the market involved calling and visiting small-scale farmers and even families growing fruit and vegetables in their backyards to encourage them to sell their produce outside the courthouse. Bolduc and Foy stress that their motivation in working on this project was their desire to enhance community feeling and promote revitalization of the downtown area at a time when commercial activity was moving to the Crossroads Shopping Center area. In time, the running of the farmers market was taken over by farmers like Robert Munson, while Bolduc and Foy became involved in the design and construction of the Pearl Street Mall. Bolduc and Foy close out their interview with a general discussion of the importance of maintaining the tradition of locally grown food as environmentally appropriate in a time of climate change.
