Larkspur's Market United (LMU) is an umbrella organization for all individuals who are go-getters in home-grown produce, homemade jams/jellies, artisan breads, and other hand-crafted items to be sold on local street corners. It represents a proud group of folks who are trying to keep the small producer and the health-conscious consumer top-of-mind when it comes to filling the refrigerator and pantry. As a large organization that provides a variety of services for its regional member clubs, LMU continually strives to better understand its own profitability. LMU has four key support services to assist its members: Member Services, Social Media, Resource Deployment, and Administrative Services. These four support departments exist for the benefit of the three operating segments, which are organized geographically: East, Central, and West. While the support services primarily assist the operating segments, they also cross over and assist each other.
