Bloomberg asked where experts would personally invest $100,000 for their March monthly edition.

Pottstown FARM Highlights Local Farmers Bringing Fresh Produce to Market
Pottstown FARM is showcasing the local growers who help provide fresh, seasonal produce and locally made products to the community throughout the year.
Among the featured vendors is Cruz Family Little Farm, which grows produce at Tomorrow Homestead in Gilbertsville. The farm offers fresh tomatoes and other ingredients used in its homemade salsa, along with a variety of seasonal produce.
Also featured is Rosedell Farms of Douglassville, which raises ducks and chickens and produces a selection of canned fruits and vegetables in its commercial kitchen. In addition to selling its own products, Rosedell Farms serves as Pottstown FARM's co-op farmer, working with other local growers to bring a wider variety of produce to market. The cooperative effort helps ensure customers have access to seasonal favorites, such as sweet corn, while supporting smaller farms that may not grow every crop.
Market organizers encourage visitors to meet the farmers and learn more about the work they do to support local agriculture and the community.
