As part of our strategic goal of targeting our outreach, we did fewer EV Round-Ups in 2024, focusing on attending larger farmers markets and those that cater to specific demographics. We connected with more than 200 people at four markets in Henrico County and the City of Richmond.

Looking ahead to 2025, we're considering attending more farmers markets to connect with the EV curious. But that means we need to do less of something else. So, should we continue to have two Electrics & Espresso car meets a month? If not, should we choose the Libbie Mill Starbucks or Coco + Hazel?
