Comments
Anyone else wondering when the farmers find time to grow anything or, conversely, how they find enough farmers to staff all these markets? Don't get me wrong, I love having them and being able to go to one most any time is nice, but it does seem like they are becoming VERY popular! Still in love with the Sunday market in Catonsville...
