Y'all, it's finally happening! We have a flower vendor who is coming to our market and in a big way. Meet Brooke Freeman from Brooke's Fresh Cut Flower Farm. She will be at our market giving us a try on Saturday. Please come out and support her so she will continue to be a vendor at our market. Her regular day could be Tuesday. We are trying to find a fit for her, so she can come to us and be at her other markets as well. This is how she describes her flowers ! Fresh cut locally grown flowers by Brooke. Flowers varying in color and type: delphiniums, Scabosia, Celosia, Sunflowers, snapdragons, zinnias, Lisianthus, Dahlias, Lilys, hydrangeas, Gladiolas and more!
