Dear Northend,
Thanks for stopping by the market. Sorry you were disappointed to find “only a few people selling items.” This IS our first year and we are trying to grow. There were fewer vendors this week, but it was the 4th of July weekend AND, like you and me, farmers take vacations too! The folks from Sunny Slope and Steve’s Farm were attending a funeral…..an excused absence, I’m sure! And don’t forget the drought! Please don’t give up on us.
I stopped in there on Saturday. I was disappointed, there were only a few people selling items. I just thought there would be more stuff for sale.
What a joy to have a farmers market in our area! Thanks to the vendors who have the best produce around! It’s about time we salute our local growers and enjoy the fruitts of their labor. Thank you North Escambia for supporting such a wonderful event!
Five stars to this farmers market!
Thanks North Escambia residents for supporting The Market at Saint Monica’s! It has been a wonderful year so far, better than we had hoped. It has been so much fun visiting with you and getting to know you! Can’t wait to see you all again next time!
