Hello! Welcome to the market! We have a ton of fresh, local produce here. All organic, made by yours truly. Yes, these hands made all that you see. Look around, see what catches your eye.
Ah, yes, right here we have over 300 different kinds of posts. These were cultivated at my farm in Medium. Each one was carefully nurtured and grown by my own hands. Fertilized by the finest hearts, we upgraded to giving them loads of claps until they were ripe. Some are sweet, though most are pretty spicy. There might be a bitter one every now and again.
I take it you’ve noticed this giant pumpkin of a thing here? Yeah, that’s my baby. I call it my novel. You see how it’s green in color? That’s because it isn’t mature yet. I need to keep watering it daily, it’s a particular plant you know. I give it another month or two, then I’ll be proud to give the vegetable away to the crowd. To nourish their souls.
Oh, those pretty little berries over there? Those are Insta-berries. They may be small, but they pack a punch every time. Very nutritious. Keeps you mentally conscious of your existence. Hopefully they can add a little sweetness to your life!
Sorry, I don’t take card. Cash only.
You’re asking me what’s in this box? Those are where I store my nuts. Nuggets that are a little weird-tasting. I normally don’t show them to customers. Usually they stay pressed in a notebook, so they can stay dry and cool, away from the light of day.
I’ve been at this market for a few months. Gotta say, I like the atmosphere. So much promise. Most of the other produce farmers are nice, they actually care about your well-being. Some of them are in it for the dolla bills, others mean well but their produce is meh. Overall, though, an awesome place to be, for sure.
Enjoy the produce! I’ll be here if you have any more questions.
