Welcome to the White Rock Farmers' Market Blog. From the somewhat unique postion of being a vendor, a director and a customer, I hope to give you a mostly unbiased view of the WRFM! I hope to introduce you to vendors, customers, and even some of the dogs that visit the market. If you would like to be the 'customer of the week', well just stop by and introduce yourself at the Wyndson Farm booth. I'll take your picture and ask you a few questions about the market, and then you can see yourself here.

There will be information about new things at the market, and any other trivia that I can come up with. Suggestions and pictures are always welcome, and comments too.

The (Weather) Gods are angry!

It seems that way, as we have had more than our fair share of crappy weather on Sunday mornings. We had one day that we could call 'hot', a few not so hot, and a lot downright anything but hot.
Bad weather doesn't keep the dedicated customers away, but going to the market for a look round and something to do on a Sunday morning isn't what you'd pick when it is pouring rain.
Last Sunday it rained the whole time.
Yesterday it had rained early on, but wasn't raining for setup at least. Then mid morning the skies opened. Add some thunder and lightening to that, and it was just wonderful -NOT!

Thankfully, we'd left the dogs at home. Jake doesn't 'do' thunder.

Look at all the customers! Don't you wish you had been there!


Rubber boots were the footwear of choice, and we had made the right choice at least.
Thankfully it was relatively short lived.
It cleared up and was nice by the end of the market.
Unfortunately it didn't clear up in time to dry the tents out.
Keeping our fingers crossed for next Sunday, and then the two more Sundays left after that.

Just checked the weather forecast.  Rain predicted for next Sunday too.  Maybe I should be making umbrellas.
Let's just hope the forecast changes for the better.
