Brazos Valley Farmers' Market

I have been to almost every market since winter. Winter was rough, but there were a few die-hard vendors that came no matter what. They brought their veggies, if they had any, their eggs if the chickens gave any, their crafts if they made any, and their canned goods if they could. Back in that season, the roughest weeks saw only one to three vendors. But they were determined to local food so I came and I shopped whatever goods they brought. Last week saw over 30 vendors, many accepting WIC coupons, so many veggies, eggs, honey, crafts, canned goods, soap and baked goods that the parkinglot overflowed with vendors before customers arrived. The president of the board of the farmer's market stopped and chatted for a while...this is becoming quite a powerful force for B-CS and local food.
