Festival Of The Nations

We were invited to help man a booth at the festival of the nations this year, we also were able to sell a few things. So with about two weeks to get ready, and a lot to do, I had to rush to update my seed catalog, make the Job's Tears jewelry I was going to sell, and make this blog.

The festival was this weekend, and I must say, it was worth all my hard work (and everyone else's) because we all made quite a bit of money. 
So here are some photos of our booth.
The International Institute's global farms produce

A close-up of some of the produce

The stone family table

My Job's Tears jewelry (and home-grown tomatoes)

Some of the flowers I was selling

Our long row of bicycles (we all biked there)


Here are some photos of the few dances I went to see
a Chinese dance, I didn't get there in time to see the Chinese tea-picking dance, it was one I was really wanting to see.
And Dance Caledonia, a Scottish dancing school.
So, that is what we did and saw at the festival!

  2. Oh, it was a lot of fun, I saw a few other dances, but did not have the camera with me! The Russian dancers were really neat, but my favorite are the Scottish dancers. I only sold a few of the flower arrangements, the rest are on our kitchen counter!

  3. I loved the flower arrangement I got from your booth and also the beautiful jewelry. I bought 2 pair of earrings that I like very much. I also bought some fresh mint that I used for garnish on the Jamaican salsa I made for a party.

    1. You are the only person who ever bought mint from me then! The flowers were also not popular, I sold the most of the earrings. Thanks for your comment!
