Farmers Market

Farmer’s Market was ablaze with colors, textures, sound and produce.
Not a lot of negotiating like the old days. People pay the price asked.
The farmers who have sold everything begin loading up empty trays.
Heading home for a little nap, since they have been awake since four a.m.
Regular buyers, regular sellers, greeting each other, sharing stories.
It is a bustle and rustle of activity. The happening place on Saturdays.

I still frequently go to a farmer's market on Saturdays. My farmer friend Shane sets up each week. They do quite a business.

Hello Caren, the farmer's market is always crowded with people. Early in the morning until noon. I use to be a vender at the market with my husband selling chocolates. Hugs.

Hello Caren, It was fun to sell chocolates at the market. I heard all kinds of excuses of not wanting the chocolates. Some of the excuses were very funny. Hugs.

I love the idea of selling chocolates.
