Welcome Back to the Market!
Welcome back! Those of us who volunteer at the Market are very excited to see our vendors and our customers again! Our 2011 season ended on a very sad note with the unexpected loss of one of our anchor vendors, Ross Faris from Your Neighbor's Garden. Ross was a mentor for me, and I will miss him sending me newsletters from other Markets he visited around the country. And I'll miss his regular suggestions and advice on improving the Market. I guess that makes me (and the whole BRFM volunteer team) part of his legacy - his mentoring has meant that we are always looking for new ways to make the Market better serve its customers and its vendors. We have several new vendors this year - some to fill the void left by Your Neighbor's Garden and some to help round out our product offering. We'll look forward to your feedback as the season rolls out. -- Barbara Wilder, Market Master  | | photo by Alan Hague, The Broad Ripple Gazette |
