I’ve been out fishing during every Farmer’s Market of this season, and have missed celebrating the bounty with you all in person. This is a great post – thanks so much for listing all of the participants. Makes me that much sadder to have missed out on all of the goodies, but so very proud of what the Sitka Farmer’s Market has developed to in such a short span of time. Nice work, friends!
