AT THE MARKET:
Still no sunflowers this week (they really are coming, I promise), but they're all headed up, so hopefully they'll pop next week. In the meantime, I'll have some mixed bouquets, flowered gourds, and broomcorn swags at the market. And if I get a chance to go picking my bittersweet, I'll bring some bunches of that too.
Also next week, Victor market switches to October hours, meaning we're only there until 6pm for the rest of the month, since it's dark by 7 in October.

AT THE MARKET:
Well, my flowers will be pretty few and far between this weekend. I'm right in the middle of a few patches that got washed out by the all the rains, and it'll be a few weeks before the next patch of sunflowers comes back on. In the meantime, I've got lots of flowered gourds, a few broomcorn swags, and the pumpkins on stick are starting to redden up, so I might have a few of those in time for next Wednesday's market.
