RE: Pilgrimage to the Pumpkin Market

in SublimeSunday2 years ago

Those Chrysanthemums are huge! I got one this year already, It is so big, I know I will be sorry when I plant it in the garden. (I may take it to the shore) It is huge and next year, it will come up huge in my garden! My garden is already full. First-world problems. :/

That is a nice size roadside, smaller than usual, but, you just helped support the little guy. Nice!

I didn't buy it when I went but all those pumpkins are such a happy sight. Lots of good memories surrounding pumpkin farms, pumpkin patches, and the traditional family carving parties. Autumn is such a nice place to look forward to.

I have visions of the door-to-door salesman, selling those gourds for a nickel! I'll bet you got lots of smiles!

Yep those are good problems to have!

It is a small market, but a good sized road side stand. Fully stocked of goodness all year, it is right at the farm and is open till 6pm every night. They are a hard working family!

I really wasn't making light of them and I am sure that they are a very hard working family. I know that you said that they are higher priced than going to a regular store but I will take that any day of the week.

I hope you are having a good week !

No of course I never thought you were making light of them. I was just trying to convey the homey atmosphere and overall coolness of the place. They have a fridge unit and sell beef and eggs. Loads of jerky etc. It leaves you with a good feeling to support the place.
