Welcome to a no-holds-barred peek behind the produce at the farmers market! In this episode, I’m sharing a few annoying and exhausting moments I’ve experienced recently as a market director. From vendors needing constant attention to customer questions that make you do a double take, it’s been a wild ride—and I’m here to tell you all about it.
Get ready for a candid, slightly chaotic, and totally relatable collection of stories that will make you laugh, sigh, and maybe even clutch your clipboard in solidarity. Whether you’re part of the market world or just love a good behind-the-scenes rant, this episode reminds us all that sometimes, you just can’t make this market sh*t up.
Like what you've listened to? I'm happy to offer my episodes for zero cost and no ads. Maybe that's worth a cup of coffee to you? Maybe it's worth a few bucks, just because. I love bringing these stories to you and that takes time + editing. A few dollars to show the love is always appreciated! Venmo me here!
