morgainaWas a success. We made enough money to finish the MFT kiln and a start on bringing a workshop presenter in. This is very good. The Farmer's Market itself was so excellent, wonderful weather. I held myself back and just bought arugula, basil, challa, lunch at a Turkish booth, and a wonderful Larzac from a new artisan cheesery in Dayton, WA. It is so delicious I can't think about it sitting there in the refrigerator beckoning. The cheesemakers traveled to France to learn how to make cheese and use their own goat and sheep milk. If anyone does the Walla Walla winery tour, add Monteillet Fromagerie!
The only less than excellent aspect of our sale is how locals are more than happy to snap up handmade pottery at Wall Mart prices. We only can do this once a year as a fundraiser. Making a living, or even paying for our materials, is out of the question. *sigh* We all have to know our target market and that isn't mine, even though it is a lovely time.
