Carterton Farmers Market this Morning

I spent the morning at the Carterton Farmers Market on our School Stall with the totally wonderful Trisha Bullock. A lovely morning. The sun was out and it was a lovely relaxing way to start the day.

We sold half of the plants that we took along and a couple of tickets sold for the Garden Trail. The money for the plants will go back into buying more plants/seed/soil for our school kitchen gardens. Thanks to everyone that came along and supported us and the market. A good morning at the market.
