Why Bring Your Goods Here:
We like the way the town of Media responds to food in general, the communityΒ really supports it. There are a lot of foodies in this area. It's close enough to our restaurant to access a new market, for anyone who may not know the restaurant is there. But far enough way that we're not competing with our restaurant either.Β 

Best Part of Farmers Market:
Everyone likes crab cakes so I can trade with the other vendors, which is nice. But on a business level, it's great to see people get excited about what we're doing and their response. It'sΒ a nice addition.Β 

Shameless Plug:Β 
We're the pioneers onΒ Brookline Boulevard in Havertown. The block is currently getting a facelift with new businessesΒ and I like to think we were on the pulse of that. We'll have crab cake sandwiches, soup and fried sweetΒ potatoΒ ribbons atΒ Haverford Township Day on Oct. 5.Β Find them on Facebook too and give them a 'Like.'
