Multigenerational Farmers' Market Vendors Keep on Selling
There has been a farmers market held in town for more than a century, and for many of those years, someone from Dennis Bizek's family has been on hand selling directly to the people.
"A lot of our customers have been the same over the years," Bizek said. "Others are the children of people who used to buy from my folks."
Bizek, 65, of rural Palo, is a third-generation seller at the farmers market. He said he and his wife have been continuing the tradition started by his grandfather, Mike, for 41 years, selling flowers and fresh produce.
