The farmer’s market was an excellent experience for me.  When we sold the brownies we made, I knew what it felt like to get up and sell your goods.

Those were some delicious brownies.

 When we made our money we knew that it wasn’t going to go into somebody’s pocket. We knew that it went straight to charity.

We also learned a lot about the farmers…

 Mechiah, Ben, and Greg interviewed Samuel Cantrell of Maysies Farm Conservation Center. He explained the most rewarding park of his job is “educating people and changing their lives.”

Another favorite vendor was LeBoon’s

Their business was founded in January of 2010. We sampled some garlic lime hummus.

 If I could make my own business I would definitely be back at the Anselma Famer’s Market.

We’ll just say ‘Thank you’ to Caitlin, Jason, Deb, Harriet, Susan, and others who pitched in to make this another memory which will last; and let you see what happened from the pictures.
