Bill Davenport is an entrepreneur and veteran who operates multiple farmers’ markets in the Florida panhandle. Bill is a rare blend of confidence and humility, a self-described servant leader. He serves the community and supports the vendors. Listen in to hear how a farmers market comes together, but this is so much more—it is a conversation about small business ownership, defining the mission, leadership, fear, failure, and moving forward. There is so much wisdom here.
We talked about two of my friends who launched product businesses from farmers’ markets. Do check out their products! The best dog treats ever from veteran business owner Steve at 30A Barks https://30abarks.com/ and gorgeous CBD skin care and wellness tinctures from Suzie at https://www.cbdfountain.com/
