Beginning April 17th come out to the 17th Street Farmers Market at the corner of 17th & Main Streets in downtown Richmond and visit with us in person. We'll be there bright and early on Thursdays and a few Saturdays (when we can drag ourselves out of bed.) You'll have no trouble finding us. Just follow your nose. :o)
