Sunsites Farmers Market

It's great to see just what edible produce produce farmers there are in this neck of Cochise County. As a 3-year newcomer interested in horses and other livestock, I've not met many vegetable, fruit and nut farmers. I'm finding they are as interesting and fun to know as livestock ranchers and hay growers. It's a great Saturday morning get together of old and new friends and it will grow into quite a "happening", especially when it cools down a bit. Thanks to all the edible growers who take the time to bring out and educate us about what grows to support human and even livestock (corn, etc). It's fun, too, to see the area craftsmen who come up with collectibles from such things as homegrown goards, dried ocotillo, yucca and flowers, polished and petrified and all kids of interesting indigenous and other thought-up stuff. And, of course, to get all the flyers and posters about not only what's ready to eat and how to plant in our own backyard gardens, but to keep up with what's going on, what's coming up ... yep, it's a happening happening and I'll be there most Saturdays around 9 a.m. (my husband will be there at 8) Blessings to everyone involved ! !
