“A logo is the graphic symbol that represents a person, company or organization.” – visiblelogic.com

You might think of it as a symbol that’s a part of your brand … not unlike your signature, really.

At the meeting someone brought up the logo using the words, “Buy fresh, buy local.” Someone seated at the U-shaped table in front of the room attributed the logo to the Lancaster Chamber of Commerce. Sorry, there, sheriff, the Chamber touts the “Buy Local” logo.

The Pennsylvania Buy Fresh Buy Local® logo belongs to the Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture. Using the logo without consent is unethical and just wrong.

The Columbia Market House is listed at the Pennsylvania Buy Fresh Buy Local® Website.
