Motion carried 4-0. 5.1 HPC at the Farmer’s Market Mr. Carlton asked the commissioners for their feedback following their attendance at the Farmer’s Market. Commissioner Mauren felt it went well. He felt there was less visitors at the market, the date was earlier in the season, and there was no concert that evening, so less of a crowd attending. He also felt the trivia questions were too difficult for people to answer. Commissioner Dietz felt Commissioner Mauren did a good job of educating visitors. Commissioner Campbell felt the event went well, and there were a good number of people who stopped by and were interested. The questions were difficult, but she felt they all learned something. Other HPC members noted the weather was cooler and it seemed more attendees were from out of the area, especially from southern Minnesota.
