Farmer's Market Begins





This weekend marked the beginning of the local Farmer's Market.  It runs now until October each Saturday morning from 8am - 1pm.  We are super excited to start this weekly rhythm.  Waking each Saturday and making our way downtown where they have closed the main street and everyone sets up their tents and booths to sell anything local.  
Yesterday was the first weekend and we have had a wet cold spring, so this means lots of baked goods, plants, and root cellar veggies, until the fresh veggies come in a few weeks.  The most exciting part for the kids is the honey booth in where everyone gets a honey stix.  A little sticky but oh so good! 
We picked up some potatoes for our Mother's Day dinner and are looking forward to what new and exciting things we will find next weekend.
