1st Farmers' Market

I am so excited to report that the 1st Beaufort Farmers' Market was a huge success!  The crowd was waiting for us to open at 9 and we saw a steady stream of customers until around 1030 when things started to slow down.  I sold every bit of produce I had except for 3 onions and a few bunches of herbs! The other artists at my table, Susie Willis, Brian Wright, and Mandy Prodgyzinski all sold their crafts as well.  I'm just hoping that I'll be able to keep up with the demand.  Please remember that I am a one woman show!  I operate my garden, chickens, and bees on my own and run out of hours in the day to get things done!  I will continue to bring as much high quality, pesticide free produce as my little garden can grow!  I have not been able to harvest honey from my hives yet but anticipate an extraction in the next few weeks.  I know folks want honey and I'm happy to provide it ASAP!  As soon as I extract, I'll post an update but come quickly as it sells almost as soon as it is out of the hive! 
Thank you so very much to my family and friends who have been supportive in this venture.  Thank you for coming by the farm to lend a helping hand, for encouraging me when I get frustrated and behind in work, and for coming out Saturday!  I look forward to many more successful markets!
