Hi everyone! My name is Ali Didier and I am the ne

Hi everyone!
My name is Ali Didier and I am the new Rockford Midtown Market manager and I wanted to introduce myself. A little bit about me, I grew up in Bolingbrook, IL and part of my family is from Rockford, I pursued baking and pastry arts and I started my sourdough cottage bakery (Love at First Rise) last year in southern IL and now I will be a vendor at the Midtown Market as well as being your Midtown Market manager! I love to crochet when I am not baking and I am huge Cubs fan!
I have a nervous system disorder called NF2 (you are more than welcome to ask me about it!) and it is the reason I am now entirely deaf. I am still able to communicate with everyone but please be patient with me and if you happen to know sign language, come on down to the market when it starts in June and say hi!!
Last year was my first year being a vendor at a farmer’s market and I absolutely loved it! I am excited to connect with the Rockford Midtown community and market vendors in a meaningful way!
