Farmers Market gets festive five months early
MOSES LAKE — It didn’t feel much like December this weekend, but the Moses Lake Farmers Market was in holiday mode Saturday. “We like to go all out for it, (both) Christmas and Christmas in July,” said Matt Sanzone, owner of Little Plotter Shop, who was at the market with his wife Laura Sanzone. The Sanzones’ booth was decorated with holly and lights in front of a Grinch-themed backdrop. Not all of the 68 vendors at the farmers market sported yuletide decorations, but enough did to counteract the high-80s temperatures and bright sunshine a little bit. The market management celebrated with a scavenger hunt and basket giveaway. Soap Lake musician Rylei Franks sang, and a good-sized crowd roamed the booths looking for fresh produce, good food and handicrafts.
