Sitting here exhausted, but very pleased with today's foraging run! The highlight of today's outing was actually catching harvest season for the wild strawberry for the first time in years!
This weekend, we are at Schubert Centre for their summer market, then we are back at the Rutland Flea Market. We've purchased a 4ft folding table that we hope will be big enough to handle a tighter version of the layout we had at Lumby Days. The Lumby Days Indoor Craft Fair blew our socks off!
The way the Lumby Days booth setup looked, we are becoming a veritable roving wildcrafted tea parlor with a side of medical insight to help people make choices that benefit their situations. Several times so far this spring, and several times at both major fairs this month, we've been asked if we have a storefront. As of yet, we do not, but we realize that if sales continue as they are, we will be in need of more processing space that can allow for a foodsafe kitchen, processing area, and expanded drying area so we can expand available quantities of the teas we offer, and potentially branch into other wildcrafted goods for sale.
If you are reading this and you are in the Central Okanagan region, and if you believe you know someone who might help in some way, drop us a line with that information.
