Just remembered you mentioning a blog last time we chatted and thought I would check it out! It is great to read! "...The photo is OK, though I find farmers’ market snapshots tend to look so stark and literal, they usually don’t capture the FEELING. Markets are fun because of the goods, you don’t expect a slick and snappy shopping mall presentation, your focus is on the food and crafts, and chatting with people. In pics, you see the mish-mash of basic tabletop presentation, but you don’t get the…experience..." I have tried on a few occasions to capture the feel and have been dissapointed with the outcome...just the way you phrased was so spot on! I am so excited to be a part, even if it is tiny, of this farm and hope that my schedule will allow for some volunteering next summer when I am working! Great! Hey!
