I love the first day of the Farmers Market. The sense of adventure in seeing what Mother Earth has been birthing at the hands of the great people at my local market. It like a reunion as we greet each other after our winter break. A opportunity to get reacquainted and also make new friends. This year I was happy like always to see two toads farm there along with all the other smiles that greeted me. Lots of seedlings to offer and some new items made the early run downtown worth it. My most exciting find was sun dried tomatoes. I got some goat cheese that would be delicious mixed in.. Yummy! On the other hand a new vender this year offered homemade deodorant. My friend Georgana just started making some for herself which intrigued me. I'm not so crafty as that so I bought some. Lavender and Tea Tree oil. I'm very excited to try it out. Boy does that sound funny, excited about deodorant. What makes me excited is helping local merchants and farmers while taking care of myself and my son. So if you have never been to a Famers Market or your waiting for yours to reopen get out today and go to one. It could just change your life. It did mine! I owe my health to those farmers and them fighting for EBT funds so people like me can eat heathy on a fixed or low income. Everyone deserves great health regardless of who they are and what they can afford. God bless the farmers and those who put their talents to use to make a better world for me and you...
Now to enjoy what I got, I see a wonderful salad in my future...
