While at the presentation yesterday, I spoke with Market Executive Director Tom Kerr…he asked me if I saw the new vendor stalls yet? I hadn’t. You could tell he was excited because it is progress.
I didn’t have the time to hang around after the presentation, but I zipped over to the Market after a meeting at Corpus Christi today and took the above pics.
Tell you what…I was excited too. It may seem like something small, but what I like to say is that it is usually a combination of small things that lead to big changes…we are starting to see the beginnings of that at the Market.

And Chuckie’s…not only do these guys make a mean Texas Hot Sauce, they are going to open an eatery in the Market with a wonderful menu…opening March as too!

ALIVE!
The Market will always have its roots in its European and Polish offerings, but it needs to diversify what is there…I am excited about the changes and the addition of the above.
