Moses Lake Farmers Market kicks off the year
MOSES LAKE — There weren’t a lot of actual farmers at the first open-air Moses Lake Farmers Market of 2023 on Saturday. But neither that nor the brisk spring weather kept vendors from coming to sell, or people from coming to buy. “It’s good. It’s nice to be out in public,” said Sarah Nitta, owner of The Adorable Gnome as she stood amid several dozen hand-made adorable gnomes. Nitta said she started a couple of years ago after a friend asked her to make a wreath with a gnome on it. After that, the silly little knittings of long-bearded gnomes with big floppy hats, most carrying small hand-painted signs, just kind of took off, Nitta said.
