I took a break from updates to tend to my garden, wrapping up ski season and to reflect on what to do at the market.

 

1) I am back to volunteering as a greeter.  Twice a month on average.

2) Creating a sense of community between farmer, bakers, vendors and shoppers remains my focus.  And I think you should focous on this as well.

How?   I ask questions and share what I know.

  • How do you like to cook it?
  • Tell me more about your product?
  • How are you impacted by tariffs?

I tell them about movies they may like based upon what I have learned about them.  I ask what movies or books they have seen or read.

Last week I gave recipes that use spinach from The Saffron Tales to a farmer that I buy spinach from.  

 

3) I'm creating of list of things that I miss from the market- wagons, recipes, cooking demostrations,.....

 

What's on your list?

 

See you at the market or in the neighborhood.
