Do we have an early planting season?
We certainly hope so! This year we've had an extremely mild winter especially for Minnesota. It's the end of February and we haven't even had to plow once. Until right before Christmas, we didn't even have snow! What little snow we did get, was gone within a month. Instead of snow, we had rain. Additionally, we have had above average temperatures. Just 2 days ago, February 26th, we had a high of 55⁰. There is very little, if any frost in the ground so we are already discussing plans for the planting season.
It is our intention to return to the farmers market this year. If all goes well, we will be back with a vengeance. We plan to simplify some aspects of what we have been doing so that we can put more emphasis on others. On to a few new things we are excited about this year. We have plans to start building a new, mobile market stand. This will make for a simpler market set up and display as well as allow us to be more versatile with our mobility and area of sales. Something else we are hoping to incorporate this year, is the option to purchase gift cards for yourself or as a gift for someone else.
We have also been discussing the option tof pre-order. If things go as intended, we will post on both our website and facebook page what is avaluable for the week. Then you will have the option to send us your order. We will have everything bagged up and ready for you to just pick up and go! In some cases, we may be willing to deliver. Your order can be paid for ahead of time via credit card, or at time of pick-up/delivery via cash, check, or credit card.One final thing we have been discussing, is the possibility of having grab bags available for purchase. This will consist of a variety of produce available that week with a set price. I would also like to try including a recipe or two along with each grab bag, that will utilize what is available to purchase that week.
We have a lot of things we want to do. An early spring, would certainly help us in our eendeavor.if you have any ideas, suggestions,or questions, please fell free to reach out either by email or on facebook. Just click the message icon on the screen and we will get back to you as soon as possible!
