| Notes from the Market Manager A weekly rundown of your farmers market
For those of you that were there, it isn’t news to note that Opening Day was a lot of fun! It was a pleasure meeting Mayor McGlynn and talking to all of you lovely folks that stopped by my table.
I walked home with some tasty treats from ButterGirl Baking Co. and was excited to see grass-fed beef from Austin Bros. Farm. This week should be equally exciting, as Green City Growers joins the market offering organic garden installation, and our first artisan offers Jewelry from Sarah Clark Designs.
It seemed that most people were having a good time and I even overheard one little girl exclaim as she bit in to a juicy strawberry, “this is the best day ever!” Hopefully this week’s market is even better.
