Rocky Point Farmers Market Off To Disappointing Start!

Second Sunday a Disappointment!

In support of the Rocky Point Farmers Market I visited for the second week in a row dragging my enthusiastic wife along with me this time @ 9AM. After a 3-4 booth week the first week I told her they were expecting at least 8 today. Well, it was the same 3-4 as last week. The vendors were again cordial and a pleasure to be around but there really was No Farmers Market yet! We did make a purchase and I told my wife I heard there was a Sunday Farmers Market on Main Street in Pt. Jeff. We headed that way.

Though Pt. Jeff is a pain to deal with because of traffic, we found a very well represented and organized Farmers Market. They do not allow "flea market" type merchandise sold there. The assortment of fruits, vegetables, plants, cheeses, pies, breads, goat product, plants, and many things produce related was outstanding.

Rocky Point Farmers Market needs to learn a lesson from this, take a good look at it, and model themselves after it.

I would rather support Rocky Point and the economic health of the Broadway area but until the Farmers Market become a serious endeavour I'll be headed to Pt. Jeff on Sundays.
