First Farmers Market … Success!

June 27, 2010

We totally sold out of all our produce this Saturday at the Lakewood Farmers Market. There are so many people to thank for making this market come together. Thanks to the market organizers, our helpful friends, and all the wonderful customers who stopped by. We were pretty nervous about our first market day, but all and all it was a raging success. Here are some pictures of the day.

A very colorful table of produce

Big basket of radishes

Scarlet Nantes Carrots and they taste even better than they look

Detroit Red beets (from our lovely neighbor) and some Touchstond Gold beets

Giant swiss chard also from our neighbor

Great looking green onions

    Congratulations! It looks awesome! We thought of you guys on Sat – how was the market crowd? Great to hear it was a success, although we knew it would be. :)

      Thanks Virginia! The traffic was decent, given it was the first market. Hoping it gains momentum as the season progresses. It was a lot of fun! Hope your market is going well too.
