Farmer's Market

Face Painting

Cut Flower Purchasing

Basket-weaving display
The Farmer's Market has started up again on Penticton's Main Street every Saturday morning. The authorities close off about six blocks to traffic. It is a pleasant time for meeting up with friends post-hibernation, and handing out congratulations all around for the new babies, puppies, or outfits.... opportunity also for artists, dancers and musicians to display their talents. Naturally too, it is a chance for photographs!

Ab und zu ist es herrlich durch einen Markt zu gehen und die Waren zu begutachten.
Manchmal denke ich, die Waren, wie diese Körbe sehen überall gleich aus. "Made in XY" für die ganze Welt.
Interessant sind die Menschen, die man trifft und die Waren aus der Umgebung.
Herzliche Grüsse

You farm some interesting produce around Penticton. :)

I do like the basket display. I can think of quite a few uses for a colourful woven basket.
