Greetings from Phil!
Hello Market Friends!
With some of our regular customers leaving for the summer, this newsletter will keep them, and local customers, up to date on what may prove to be the greatest summer ever. Lots of summer activities are in the works including a Shrimp and Lobster Festival 4th of July weekend. Whether you're downtown or at your summer camp in Michigan you can get a peek at what's happening at the market first hand on our live webcam every Saturday morning. www.sarasotafarmersmarket.org A little market humor for you...
Easter Blessing...Most of the time I'm fairly modest about being your manager. This story takes the cake. Last Saturday (day before Easter) the good Father came to me about 9:30 during the market and asked to set up in a space. N ow over the years I've had to remove out of our footprint of the market people with cuddly little puppies for sale, troops of belly dancers and even groups of kung fu masters. But a PRIEST!! Holy Ship.. I thought to myself. Quickly, I remembered the old back up...Main Street. I told him "Father, unfortunately with our permit I can't let you set up in a space but you are more than welcome to go out to the corner of Main Street." The Father was a good sport and even knew the rules about being stationary in the market. It all turned out well and hopefully I'll still get through the pearly gates.
