Spring has sprung...and so have the markets!

It has been a short while since the last post went up, and Spring in all its windy glory is fully upon us. You know what that means?! The market season is here! This last Saturday, my husband and I, and our baby boy, ventured downtown to our city's Farmer's Market, and it was glorious. Covering several city blocks, there was everything from fresh herbs and spices to local wines, fresh bread, and several artisan booths. For only the second official weekend, the crowds turned out in mass. It was such a great experience to be in the middle of local vendors, doing their thing, and local consumers supporting them. This particular market brings in several million dollars for the city every year, which speaks to the health of supporting your local economy whenever possible. I am so grateful to live in a city that celebrates diversity and creativity in local business!
