Due to the weather, we will not be at the Conway Farmer’s Market today, July 5th. We hope to try again on the 12th.
We hope everyone enjoyed their 4th of July celebrations. We were so happy to see some of you at the North Myrtle Beach Farmer’s Market with all your festive outfits and awesome blue hair! This was our first time selling at this location, but we saw many familiar faces among both visitors and vendors alike.

Visitors teetered off by noon, and most vendors began packing up an hour early. We sold a little honey, all of our eggs, and a few plants. I think one of the main differences from Conway’s market was the number of dogs! I love dogs, and at Conway’s Market, they are everywhere. Not so much at North Myrtle Beach. I did see some cute black Pomeranians, though. It was hot, but as the day progressed, the beach breeze helped.
Crazy Spoons
Something informative did occur, though. I love to give out honey samples because I am just so proud of our bees. I bought some adorable little wooden spoons to taste test our yummy honey, and we were getting pretty good feedback until later that morning, when I gave a sample to someone who made a funny face after tasting. After she left, I grabbed a spoon and had both George and me try some. We will not be using those spoons anymore! It was crazy; the texture of the wood made it taste different. If you didn’t stick the spoon in your mouth, it was fine, but if you stuck the whole thing in your mouth, it was off. I don’t know, it could have been a texture thing, but I immediately stopped using them.

Storms
I hope everyone stays safe during this storm season; it certainly didn’t waste any time getting started. Take care and enjoy your holiday weekend.
