My first market was yesterday and it went so well. I must admit I didn't get much sleep on Friday night. There were too many thoughts going through my head. I probably got more sleep than I thought I had. My mom stayed over night and helped me load up the truck at 5:15 am. What a trooper.
We drove down to Northfield, IL where the market is held. There were already a few people setting up when we arrived. Eventually we started setting up too (once we figured out where we were supposed to go). The day went quickly and people were so excited to have me there. I'm the only organic vegetable vendor at this market. They loved the chard, radishes, and lettuce that I brought. I'll have pictures soon. My mom took the pictures and we haven't loaded them to my computer yet.
It is such a relief to have this first market over. I'm excited it was such a success as well. I'm still recovering from the intensity of it all. I was definitely glad to get a nap yesterday. Hmm, nap . . . now that's a good idea . . .

Congrats on a successful market! Looks like your farming is going well. Your veggies are beautiful. If I was there, I'd totally buy from you. :-)
