AT THE MARKET:
I was starting to get low on squash, and gotta save some to eat through the winter, so last market was my last market for the season. (I'll have to see if I can plan for winter market this year and plant more squash, so I could go all winter next year.) So I'm done until the spring flowers come back on.

AT THE MARKET:
It's another winter market week this week. I won't have a whole lot. A few halved squash and some stew starters, a batch of beeswax tapers, a basket of catnip, and of course my cards. Either this week or next time will probably be my last winter market week until the spring flowers come back on.

Canandaigua Winter Market:
Every other Saturday, 10-11AM, November-May
In the parking lot behind the Main St. Byrne Dairy
