Wow! What a beautiful setting for a farmer’s market selling fresh produce, handmade soaps, exotic teas and all kinds of other locally produced natural products for health conscious people.

Usually you think of farmer’s markets being a bit dusty, sprawling on trampled fair grounds, but not this one . We arrived to set up at 6:20AM, and while waiting in line to drive up and unload at our market spot, everywhere around us were huge oak trees and fresh green grass full of early morning rain.

The Market is just a few minutes walk from the Lilly Ponds, and everyone arrives in the early morning while it’s still relatively cool in the humid summer to select their week’s fresh produce. Here’s a shot of the Butter Vine booth, located near one entrance, luckily in the shade of a 60 foot Maple tree. We were able to leave our new Peppermint Body Butters out of the cooler for almost three hours before the hot sunshine forced us to put them on ice!

Stay tuned for more about our new shea butter and cocoa butter body butters! They’re still in development, but we’re confident they’ll have the highest amount of shea and cocoa butter you can find in a body butter.
