The Farmer's Market in Portland is, of course, about
buying & sellling homegrown plants, person to person.
But it's so much more...
Music!! The Resonant Rogues from South Carolina:
"Gypsy jazz & tradtional eastern European music...
American folk... old-time, blues & vintage hot jazz."

Be still my heart!
I, oldish person, & young, toddler person are mesmerized...
As is this pair.
High school boys, playing folky pop tunes,
grandparent-generation tunes!
Young, perhaps girlfriend-of-musician person, admiring,
on her market wagon bench, while I admire all three.

Baby persons! Going to the Farmer's Market, a good start in life!
Happy family persons with their happy baby carriage,
loaded with plants to take home. Along with little guy's scooter.

That looks like a wonderful farmers market. Always a good find.

ReplyDeletelove to attend farmers markets. the energy from the crowd and the personal touch of vendors working the crowd is so appealing to me. Your photo of the musicians is a extra nice touch of your market. Have not experienced music at a market but it would be a nice addition to markets. Nice post -- barbara
ReplyDeleteOoh, lively, lovely bounty! xx
ReplyDeleteI love farmer's markets--they're always so interesting. The plants and flowers looked wonderful, and I love the "girlfriend's" boots. Did you sketch as well as take pictures?
