Trevi Farmers Market


Every 4th Sunday Trevi has a farmer's market. I take a stall selling Casa Margherita olive oil. Today was a good market. For some reason none of the other oil producers were present so I was the only stall selling olive oil much to my advantage. I hope this continues.

It was sunny, there were lots of tourists and a lot of locals having a coffee and a stroll before lunch in Trevi.

Had a good chat with another stallholder who grows saffron. I am going to get some bulbs from him in July and have a go.

Trevi Farmers Market

Today was the 4th Sunday of the month and so it was the monthly farmers market in Trevi.

For the first time this year the weather was sunny and so there was a good turnout of stallholders - including Casa Margherita - and there were a lot of people browsing. These included a good number of tourist from the UK, Australia, America and other parts of Italy.

So overall everyone was a bit chattier and friendly and it was therefore a nice way to spend Sunday morning.

I bought some potatoes and a kilo of peas which were lovely and sweet most of which I managed to eat at the market.

Came home and within a hour saw two quite large grass snakes one of which was around the house being chased by our Westie, Winnie, and the other in our veg garden which I dispatched with a rake.
