AT THE MARKET:
It's the final winter market this Saturday, and then in 2 weeks, we resume summer market under the Mill St. Pavilion. I might not have flowers this week (it'll just depend on the weather, if they open up or not in time for the weekend), but I'll have a dried celosia wreath and possibly a tiny bit of fresh asparagus and rhubarb.

AT THE MARKET:
It's a winter market this weekend. I'll have a bunch of freshly painted birdhouse gourds to house the feathered friends in this spring. Unfortunately I won't have many flowers for Mother's Day, most of my early bulb flowers are going to be bloomed out by then. But I'm hoping to be able to scrape together a couple bouquets at least.
