Subject: [FMC] FM on campus?


Hi, everyone -

We are looking to open a FM on campus at SJSU.  Running into tons of institutional obstacles, particularly in regard to administrators' concerns about insurance, liability, etc. Even though the farmers all carry their own liability, that does not seem to be enough to assuage the powers that be.  Any insight into how others have handled these questions, or resources to look into, would be appreciated.  Also, general ideas about how others have gone about developing support from campus decision makers, and what arrangements are working for you - for instance, weekly markets vs. once a month "special event" type markets, or whether others have incorporated CSA's into on-campus FMs.

Thanks,

Luisa Garrett
