Top credits to all our neighbors who showed up in the pouring rain to visit the new farmers market. It was so much fun to see all of my favorite farmers and to meet a few new ones who will be regulars. Note to drivers, you can park in the lot next to the market and since our tattoo parlor to the stars “Classic Tattoo” moved uptown there are tons of on-street parking.

As for my newest farmer friend - go visit Washington Street Gardens by April Reardon. If you’re from Frederick, you already know April. She created the Velvet Lounge possibly the most trendy, fun boutique in all of Metro Region. And I personally know more than a few guys who have been saved by her store for last minute girlfriend/wife gifts. Not to mention that she is married to Tim who created Pit Crew the uber awesome skateboard/snowboard shop. Remember our staff snowboarding holiday party? Tim outfitted most all of us. Their stores are attached (how cute is that?) and across the street from VOLT.

And now April has a farm! Washington Street. Hello - I’m jealous. How cool is that? Now that you have the scoop, go see her next Wednesday and all of our other farmers who will be doing this all over again next week. Oh and Bryan is going to be doing a cooking demo there June 30. Save the date and pray for sunny weather for the demo.
