“I’m happy that I have been here for so long, I’ve met so many people. My family has sold at the Farmer’s Market for around 30 years and we sold in Ypsilanti. We got to a point where we were literally selling as much as we had. Our business was literally dying over there. So we said ‘we gotta get this together because we want our business alive forever and we gotta get to someplace that we can sell’ so we asked Ann Arbor [Farmer’s Market] if we could stay there and sell and they said yes. We came to sell in the year 2000. Since then our company’s products has expanded. We started off with just plants and flowers, since then we’ve added fruits and vegetables which we sell in the market.”
