The second Saturday, April 11th, was a great market day as well. I volunteered to help out, so was there all day. There was a steady stream of customers all morning with bags in hand, ready to shop. A few were bummed we didn't have much in the way of ready-to-eat foods or produce yet, but the market is young (it will grow) and the produce is still growing out in the fields. Some should be in this coming week. :) We're all patiently waiting for juicy berries and fresh greens!!
Vendors brought more stuff this past week, but still, a few sold out again and all of them were very happy with the day. They all thought it would be a slow one compared to Opening Day and were pleasantly surprised. I'd advise you to get there early (by 10) if you are counting on walking away with local honey or berries or baked goods.
I am so happy this new market is in Clayton! I put in a beautiful garden from the veggie and herb plants I bought there (not done yet) and I've been crushing up dried shiitakes to cook with my rice, roasting garlic to have with dinner and eating honey on my breakfast bread every morning since April 4th. Can't wait to see the berries and produce that will be coming in soon!!
