Douglass Loop Farmers Market - the coolest place in town
In the middle of the heat wave, there was a light breeze blowing under the
shade of the trees that tower over the market, making it the coolest
place in town in both temperature and atmosphere!

for What I've Been Eating to learn more about the good stuff at the market
Thank you to all our neighbors
who continue to make our market a success.
See you next Saturday!
Market hours - Saturday, 10:00 - 2:00
Location - Douglass Blvd Christian Church, located behind the

~~~ Doggie Pics ~~~
Every dog has a story, and today I want to share this little guy with you. I met his foster mother
when she emailed me about donating a gift basket for a fundraiser for Saving Sunny, Inc. When he
was rescued from Metro Animal Services three weeks ago he had been so badly abused he weighed
only 11 pounds. He was so thin he couldn't sit down, there was nothing to cushion him on his butt.
But just look at the smile on his face! He has learned that there is love in the world. That's
all he needs. He will find his forever home soon - he has to wait three more weeks to be neutered
before he can be placed. Our hope is that every unloved animal out there will have the same opportunity.
A meeting of the minds
Look at all the happy doggy smiles!
A cool drink of water and one of Rocko's Rewards All Natural Dog Biscuits
makes for a great party with dogs and people making new friends.
Now this is what I call a party!
Market Etiquette:
If you have four feet on the ground, you have to have a leash - no exceptions
Please respect the products the vendors have for sale by keeping a safe distance
The market is a busy place - consider how your dog feels about crowds, noise
and other dogs of all sizes
Always be prepared for the unexpected - children running up to your dog, especially with food
in their hands, leashes that can pose a trip hazard to other shoppers, unexpected
reactions from or towards other dogs, noises or smells that might upset your dog
The most important thing is keeping people and pets safe
Water bowls are located behind Rocko's Rewards booth, please stay hydrated.
We encourage you to enjoy our Sit and Shop area where you can
sit in the quiet shade
with your dog while you wait on another shopper -
or meet a new friend and pet-sit for each other.
Please vote for us in StartupNation's Home-Based 100 - you'll be back here in just a second!
