There are some allowances within the Bayfield Farmers' Market Rules and Regulations that will allow producers to partner with each other and to bring additional specialty products that will complement the market without unduly competing with vendor grown/created products. Craft products will be limited and juried to maintain the farmer driven focus of the Bayfield Farmers' Market and to ensure the level of uniqueness of arts and crafts in line with the Village of Bayfield brand."

It also marked the first anniversary of my no longer watching the news on television, radio or reading a daily paper. My husband joined me in the quest for a less news - frenzied lifestyle. It became too overwhelming — the ticker tape at the bottom of the screen broadcasting in a loop stories of doom, gloom and violence that the majority are powerless to stop. The coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing and the subsequent hunt for the perpetrators was more than I could handle. Watching as these things unfolded literally from every camera angle was too much. I'm sure many would argue that knowing about every little thing that happens in the world is our duty as a global citizen, and in my youth I too would have argued that point, but I now feel differently. It is not a case of ignorance is bliss. I know about the search for the lost plane, earthquakes, ongoing unrest in Egypt and the passing of our former finance minister. News items such as these tend to seep into the daily consciousness whether you watch and read religiously or not. But I am much more calm and centered without this daily barrage and as a result I feel I am a more productive and creative citizen of the world. And that is truly something to be grateful for this Easter season. - Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
