Here is the second #FarmersMarket mentioned by my state senator...

#BiddefordME

Wednesdays (starting July 2nd), from 4:00pm - 7:30pm at Mechanics Park.

Farmers, makers market coming to Biddeford this summer

Biddeford will join the list of local communities with farmers markets and makers markets as the city’s first market gets ready to open this summer.

Posted March 25
Sydney Richelieu

"Farmers and makers markets are popular in towns along the seacoast, and as warmer weather approaches, markets are getting ready to open.

"This summer, Biddeford will debut its first farmers and makers market in downtown, piloted by the Downtown Development Committee (DDC).

"The committee had been discussing a possible public market for over a year when the Courier reported on the idea in February."

So, I love my state senator! He mailed me a postcard with two new #FarmersMarkets in the area (in addition to an existing one nearby in #SacoME)!

Here is the first one that was highlighted...

#DaytonME Farmer's Market
Saturdays from 8:00am - 2:00pm at 24 Jessica May Road in Dayton

“What makes the farmers market such a special place is that you’re actually creating community around food.”

Continued thread

It seems I might have to break down and buy a few plants from one of the local farms. My lavender and sage plants aren't doing so hot, and I forgot to start tomato plants this year. But I do like giving them some business before the harvest begins (and they have an abundance of veggies -- even in the winter!). They have the best Sun gold tomato plants (I don't bother with big red ones -- too tempting for the hornworms. Not that they don't go after the smaller tomatoes, but I usually notice them before they do much damage).

I'm attending a harvest work party at Rake & Radish local farm in #Saanich on Wednesday morning til early afternoon. It's a small scale #QueerOwned farm. It's only 10 minutes from my home. I believe in what this small local farm is doing. I want to actively support them, with my boots & cane on their small farm grounds.

"Rake and Radish is a small-scale farm growing a wide range of vegetables, as well as berries and flowers, on half-acre plot at the base of PKOLS on unceded lək̓ʷəŋən and W̱SÁNEĆ territories.

At Rake and Radish Farm, I aim to queer farming and make fresh, delicious vegetables more accessible to people in our community.

I operate with a triple bottom line: environmental, financial, and emotional. This means holistic success that takes into account more than just the financial success of the farm operation. Regenerative land stewardship, a fulfilling social life, relationships, and time to recharge are all part of the farm’s measure of success."
