The party's over, and the fans are all gone. We've packed up, cleaned up, and gone home with our goods--tired but happy.
The weekend car show at the Chester Country BBQ Fest was on Saturday, and the weather cooperated very well. Sunny, 70 degrees, light breeze...PERFECT for sitting a booth! And sit we did. Five hours spent answering questions, plugging the farm, and hocking our wares, and we have come to the conclusion that it was time well-spent. We sold items, we introduced the farm, we met new people, and we laughed a lot. The exposure, in itself, was well worth the time invested, but we got so much more out of it. We discovered that there are a lot of local folks out there who a) didn't know we existed and b) really would like to come spend some time at a real farm rather than an attraction. WooooHOOOO!!! We DO matter! Our message IS valid! We're doing a GOOD thing!
Affirmation is ALWAYS good. Good for the soul, good for the psyche, and good for business.
Next weekend? We'll be at the Chickasaw Arts & Crafts Festival. Weather permitting, it should be a great time. Stop by and see us, if you get a chance!
