Snowflake-Taylor Harvest Market
The Snowflake-Taylor Harvest Market has two weeks under its belt as part of the Our Lady of the Snow Swap Meet. The swap meet has grown over the years creating heavier traffic in Bellybutton on a Saturday morning. Now, the swap meet has the addition of the Harvest Market. Organized by Joyce Belnap, who, along with many other vendors, had a variety of seeds and succulent plants for sale. Last Saturday there were vendors selling vegetable plants, seeds, meat, eggs, and decorative homemade items. The market was created to bring people together as a community. It also helps these local farmers and ranchers to network and provide alternative resources to the area.
The group’s Facebook page indicates that the market is for “individual sellers & buyers, in Snowflake & Taylor, AZ who want to buy, sell or barter any of the following resources: meat, dairy, grain, vegetables, fruit, plants, trees, seeds, starts, farm animals, created or recreated gifts, preserves, baked goods, and eggs.”
It is limited to individual sellers, local small farms, and local small businesses.
When I went on Saturday, I was able to buy several vegetable plants including tomato plants, lettuce, cauliflower, and sunflower. The market will be back tomorrow and each Saturday thereafter at 1655 S. Main St. in Snowflake.
