Farmers Market

Have you been watching the Farmers Market program that's on the Tele in the afternoons i love to watch it there really dedicated to growing fresh veg  and it looks very nice veg what they have grown also there's the  chap with the vinery and those producing fresh meat that's all sold  on the Farmers Markets

there not going to be millionaire's but what a life and i know from experience when my wife had a market stall i used to help out when i was of work getting out of bed drive to the market set up the stall what a job when it was raining then packing all the goods away and the stall we sold plants and silk flowers never ever sold out

i wasn't sorry when she packed it in and got a job with the post so i know these markets are a hit and miss some days you take money the next  time hardly worth turning out and the weather plays an important part of that but the upside was we met a lot of nice people who took the trouble to come and pass the time of day

Yes I came across this, this week & will be looking for it on the iplayer so I can watch from the beginning. We need more of theses sort of programmes so people realise what a hard but worthwhile job farming is. Maybe then as a nation we could come together to produce more of our own food & save some of the imports & all the red tape.

Just watched episode 1 on the iplayer, apparently this is series 5    unfortunately the other 4 series aren’t on the iplayer 

 Just watching today’s episode, they’re at Bowhouse market , I’ve been there a couple of years ago when we stayed in Pittenweem, just down the road, the organiser has just said it’s in its 3rd year, I’d just said to hubby that I thought it had just started the year we went. It really was a fantastic market.
