Spring Promises

The warmer weather this week captured my heart with the promise of spring. The sun was shining, I opened the windows at my house, put on a light jacket, took a deep breath of spring dreams and got outside.

I love to take my dogs and just explore. This weekend we came across this unique sign at Park Springs Park. Have you noticed any fun facts popping up around Bentonville?


We also got out and took a hike on the miles of trails Bentonville offers. Kora even found a stick to play with!


With all of the fun that I am having with warm weather, farmers are working hard to plant, grow and plan for the Bentonville Farmers Market. Little seedings are growing to provide numerous tomatoes for summer BLT's!


The question is, what are you looking forward to at the Bentonville Farmers Market? Talking to the vendors? Purchasing fresh local food? Shelling the peas with the sheller?


The Bentonville Farmers Market opens Saturday, April 27th from 7:00am to 1:00pm. My suggestion? Come hungry and eat at a new food trailer, purchase flowers to welcome spring, bring a canvas bag to fill with fresh local produce, meat and cheese and stop and enjoy the place you call home.
