Homegrown in Alabama - The Kids of the Pepper Place

I had way too many to choose from. Photographing the kids is one of my favorite things.

Homegrown in Alabama I - Fill Your Basket

Today we're starting a little mini series featuring Alabama farmers' markets and produce. Today, grab a peach basket and let's start our stroll around the Pepper Place Market. The Market at the Pepper Place began in 2000 as only a summer market but has grown to become almost year around.It's the happening place on Saturdays from 7-12. There are of course fresh produce but now it's expanded to hand crafted goods, music, chef demonstrations as well as baked goods and so much more. 

You Must Remember This..

a kiss is just a kiss.

I'm back at the Pepper Place Market as many Saturdays as I can! Yesterday was a great day. Stay tuned for many photos!

Pet the Pugs Market

And all this time you all thought the PPM was the Pepper Place Market! Actually, Harry and Lulu are famous and now featured on this Pepper Place promo! As a personal note, I photographed these pugs years ago at the market and now they are my downstairs neighbors!

Keep on Truckin'

I love to poke around the trucks parked at the Pepper Place Market on Saturdays. Alabama farmers are the best and they bring us fresh produce every week. Gotta love 'em!

Ya'll Come!

To the spring opening of the East Lake Farmer's Market today.  They're featuring a Strawberry Festival (with FREE strawberry shortcake) , great fresh produce and art items.  Located in the parking lot of the East Lake Methodist Church on 2nd Avenue and 78th Street South.  I'm hoping this nice guy will be back with his homemade pies, cakes and fine cheese straws.
