Well, it’s been a challenging growing year to say the least. The cool and exceptionally windy weather has all of my crops far behind. Couple that with a total lack of rain for 33 straight days and it’s enough to make me consider doing something else with my summers. I always say it’s not farming, it’s professional gambling.
The market took a little while to get going but it is in full swing now with many new vendors and lots of good foot traffic from eager patrons. Even though the economy is struggling, people still have to eat and they seem to like their fresh foods from the market because there doesn’t seem to be a lack of people at the market, especially on Saturdays.
We are still working on finding a permanent site where we can have a structure over our heads but it takes time and of course money, but we are making headway. I want to thank all of the board members and volunteers that help out behind the scenes to make things work. We are still new to this thing and are working out the bumps as we run into them.
As I write this I can hear the sweet sound of rain against the window, I can sleep a little better tonight knowing I don’t have to drag hoses all over the place for a few days. I hope everyone is having a good year and the frost stays away for as long as possible. by Steve Kaufer, RWFMA President
