Colchester Farmers Market

Grayson Lail, the shuttle driver, just learned about the best place - Colchester's Farmers Market! He's so enthusiastic about this that he insists on using his shuttle driving authority to take people into town on Saturday* so they too can enjoy the market! He's also organized with one of the vendors to have sandwiches, snacks, and drinks for a little picnic in the park adjacent to the market, for whoever wants - his treat! Everyone could use a bit of a pick-me-up after that weird mist stuff!

Any regulars of the farmers market will notice a brand new booth - The Children of Persephone. They occupy a small booth in the middle of the market that's draped in purple mottled fabric, and the group of 3 people working it are peddling new age, folk-magic, and occult objects. Surprisingly, they also seem to be somewhat enthusiastically espousing the wonders of the Undying Asphodels and Liminals. Cool...?

Other existing stalls include:

Pie's the Limit and 3.14159 You Betcha, rival pie stands.
Duke Salisbury's strawberry stand - Duke wears daisy dukes, you're welcome.
Andrea Mallory's stand, selling all sorts of goat milk product including milk, soaps, and lotions.
The Pierogi Wagon, which is, indeed, a wagon selling pierogis.

*Normally the farmers market runs on Sundays, but this weekend its being run on Saturday because one of the organizers wants to go tubing Sunday and is too controlling to let it run without him. Shut up!!!

» AT THE STATION: Before heading off to the farmers market, Grayson is excitedly collecting people to head into town!
» AT THE MARKET: Are you checking out a new booth? Visiting an old favorite? Stuffing yourself with samples? Did you take the time to have a picnic with Grayson?
» STALLS: Feel free to make up your own stalls using the form provided! Kas gets to make Duke's stall because they made him up lol ♥
» OOC - QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, CONCERNS!

Omg I just saw your edit, you too… Should I go to the farmers market???

this is your sign to be MARKET BOUND!

Everyone stop what you're doing and go to the farmers market!

Hello! Both of mine are around: Tom to actually shop and Linus because Field Trip and also a farmer's market seems like a safe place where things don't go wrong and mist probably won't descend. Open for threads! Though I too am in fact going to a farmer's market shortly so I'll be gone a little while.

Method RP…

Listen it was the place to be

we were at the market together in spirit

I told Tiff I'd make up a booth for here based on one I saw so gotta go make a cheese curds guy I guess

this is SO cute? but this market is free of crysta because she's still on her weird odyssey to find rainwater. that is just as well, seeing as she would be weird about these people please please someone inform her of the tuesday meeting so she can crash someday (or don't because that's bad too)
But i may throw up a booth or something to still Participate idk

Yessssss. ♥ I Love.

I think Lenz and Sparrow are here! The former just to check things out (he's been here before, but it's been a while) and maybe watch Rory squirm, the latter to experience the market for the first time (thanks for the heads up, Grayson!). So they're around if anyone wants them. Dorin is still taking it easy after getting spider-chomped, but hopes people will have a good time and take some cute photos~

GOOD MORNING. my brain is mush today but i WILL come n play i promise i promise this is very cute. zeke is not here, vidalia might be?? depends on if it's funny that raine still has gordo. but auggie definitely is!!!! he's gonna buy some weird shit from a new agey stall thank u.
