What a fantastic morning!!!!!!! I showed up this morning (a bit late , ooops) at the Watauga county farmers market . I sort of knew there was a section for the kids but finally saw the inner workings. Sarah Herman , Valle Crucis T.A. in the Pre-K program has been working the market with students and parents on a regular basis. Her beautiful school garden provided all the delicious , nutritious offerings which were sold. What did the offerings include? Edible and gorgeous zucchini flowers, spaghetti squash, awesome heads of red and green leaf lettuce, cucumbers, verdant kale, dill plants, and decorative squash Yum. Yum. Yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I must not forget to mention (no names sorry) two young ladies and their mom who displayed awesome sales "panache" and litterally wowed the crowd selling out just about everything we had and raking in some big bucks. Off to the side was another young man fro VC marketing some vintage "Peter Pan" swords and sheilds and home produced honey. "SOLD OUT" Any students and parents from Valle Crucis are welcome to bring their wares. Every other week. Join the fun. Chat a bit with Sarah H.. She grows the stuff and will give you a recipe to knock your socks off. Lot's of gardening and great collateral learning going on over a VC. I ask myself. Why are we sooooooo! AWESOME! :)
