Farmers and Artist Day In Arkansas

By Mara Hernandez-Capili

I love shopping at Farmers Markets where the produces are fresh and the fruits and vegetables are in season. Farmers markets are places where you can buy your goods at extremely lower prices, totaling to almost 50% mark down compared to grocery and shopping mall prices. Going to farmers markets also gives me a keen sense of consumerism pride as I am able to get the best commodities at relatively lower price.

For those of you who are not aware, farmers markets are bazaars that are usually set up at open areas. They are usually open every weekend on the morning, so the goods are guaranteed as fresh and ripe. Customers flock farmers market to meet and greet with their favorite farmers and engage in the shopping experience. Being at the farmers market is like being on an authentic Palenque , consumers are engaged in endless battle of haggling over great looking and tasting items.

Arkansas is one of the many states that hold Farm and Art market. It surely is a picturesque mixture of fruits, vegetables and arts. Thinking about it arts and market products have nothing to offer in common, all I know is that it'll be fun to witness this kind of event. Local Artists are present during the fete; they will lighten the busy event. Artists are also given the chance to showcase their art products. It is a abundant and artistic celebration.

Paintings on oil and acrylics will be put up for sale this weekend. There will also be an interesting on the spot face charcoal painting for the spectators and shoppers who would love to see their portrait on canvas. Artists will be more than welcome to commission your artworks for you.

Come to the Farm and Art Market at Arkansas this weekend! Bring your trusted comrades and dearest friends!
