Hot Diggity Dog Day

Hey there all of our loyal Otis Farmers Market customers!  This Saturday, August 13th is Hot Diggity Dog Day!  For those of you who visit our market with your dogs, know that there will be a few things for your dogs to do!  We will have doggie pools set up for dogs to cool off in, doggie water bowls for them to drink out of, a doggie obedience class (dogs have already signed up for), and lots more doggie things for our favorite doggie customers to do!  We also have our Vendor of the Week to highlight with a cooking demo.....and this Saturday it just so happens to be Bracken Brae Farm of Monterey!  The cooking demo will consist of what is ready on their farm for produce right now, so bring  your taste buds as Sandra Snyder cooks up a storm!  And, we will have live fiddle music by our favorite fiddle player, Sarah Hubbard...... So much is happening that it would be a howling shame if you missed it!

Tie Dying!

Ready, set, tie-dye!  This Saturday, August 6th at market, we will be hosting our 2nd annual Tie-Dying Day!  You can purchase a shirt to tie dye for just $5.00, or bring your own shirt (or whatever clothing you'd like to tie dye) for $3 (to cover the cost of dye).  There will also be shirts already tie-dyed on sale from $5 to $10 if you don't want to get  your hands dyed!  Also happening on this day is our Vendor of the Week, who just happens to be Cal's Zucchini Relish!  They will be doing a cooking demo to show our public what can be done with their relish.  So join us for a day of fun and food!
