Chatham Farmer's Market Opening Day June 25th 2011

Yesterday was the opening day of the Chatham Farmer's Market 2011 season.  I was a bit worried because we had been having such terrible weather.   My concern was unfounded because it was a beautiful day.   I got up early and picked up the burgers and packed out the hummus.   I drove to Chatham and got there just as Theresa did.   Luckily my nephew Daniel was there to help up set up the tent...we were a bit rusty.  We are in a new location....catty- cornered facing the entrance to the market...it turns out it is a great spot.   Again I was glad Daniel was there to help because we have a new sign that I had trouble hanging....he is much taller than me.  

It was so good to see everyone again.   There are lots of new vendors too.   I loved that so many of our regulars were excited to see us....most of them had run out of their veggie burgers and needed to stock up.  Theresa also got her usual complements on her display, as you can see it is beautiful.   We will be back on July 23rd ....hope to see you then.  Oh don't forget to help us with our poll...let us know if you have any questions or suggestions too....we would love to hear from you.   Hears to healthier eating....happy summer!

Gluten Free Veggie Burger!




Tomorrow is the first day of the Chatham Farmer's Market.   We have have been cooking all week....our first side of the season is a Roasted Red Pepper Hummus....always a favorite.   Theresa has been working hard trying to create a Gluten Free Veggie Burger....she has many ideas but we thought we would try to get a sense of what our customers want.   We want our veggie burger to be like our regulars ----something everyone would like.   The question is do we make a variation of one of our regular burgers or do we make a new flavor altogether?   Help us make a decision....take the poll on the right side of the page so we can get a better idea of which direction to take.   Thanks....oh and don't forget to stop by tomorrow----oh and we are in a better spot this year-----right near the entrance to the market.   See you then.
