Saturday was a warm day for February but it seemed to bring out lots of customers. Wayne from North of Nuttby Farm had lots of shoots and sprouts, and a few squash still keeping well.
Marcus from Casson Family Farm had a fine display of winter vegetables.

There was a hockey tournament in town and some of the dads from New Brunswick came down to the market. Here's a few of them smelling Linda's goats' milk soap, choosing something to take home to wives or daughters.
Lynn Thornton from BrookLynn Beads in Truro is a regular visiting vendor to our market. Here's a few of her pieces.
We had the official launch of our new website, and the author  - Nick Gunn - was on hand to demonstrate the site.
And as always, here's a view of the bay from our back deck, early on a Saturday morning in mid-February.

A New Season at the Market

Our market opened again on Saturday, on a cold February morning. It was hard to keep the building warm while the vendors had the doors open bringing in their goods. Some found it easier to leave their hats on for a while.


Connie Liebmann was back at the market this week. Here she is discussing the fine points of her spelt bread, a new product for this year.



Deb's Country Kitchen has a new look this year, with a very attractive blackboard which makes it easy to choose your breakfast. Debbie also has menus for the tables this year. And she has chili this year, a new lunch offering. It should be popular.

 

We have new vendors this year - Shelly Canfield and Pauline Glenn with their line of gluten-free baking.





And as always, here's a view of the bay from our back deck, just before 8:00 am on Saturday 2 February.
