Saturday marked the first farmers market of the season, and my very first market or show of any kind. I’ve been preparing for weeks, trying to plan a booth and have things to fill it with while making sure that Jack Danger was fed and happy.

We woke early and filled the car with all of the stuff (and Jack!). Garth rode his bike since I filled the front seat with books.

I took aprons and journals and bow ties. It was such a lovely day! Garth and Jack hung out with me off and on.

Jack was actually the star of the booth, as you can see.

These two girls were so adorable and they provided me with my first “sale” of the season, a barter. The traded me a Pluto necklace that they had made for a journal each. They helped me bind the books, and insisted that the necklace be for Jack.

I’m looking forward to a whole summer of farmers market-ness, and hope that I can improve my set-up and selection each week! =)

For those of you in the Pensacola area, the Market is on Palafox, in between the two lanes of traffic, in Martin Luther King Plaza. It is every Saturday, 8am-1pm, through September 26th. I’ll have a booth there just about every other week, or more specifically, on these days: May 16th & 23rd, June 6th & 20th, July 4th & 18th, August 15th & 29th, and September 5th & 19th.
