Every season a pair of bluebirds nest under the eve of my house, which I allow because I enjoy having them around. They are pretty things with an appetite for insect pests. Also their song sounds like they are quietly cooing at their young and is very relaxing to hear. The first sighting of bluebirds is considered by many to be a sign of Spring.

The Saturday before Easter, the Union County Farmer’s Market decided at the last minute to organize a pop-up market before their official Market season begins on May 2. Several vendors were new to the Market, and this was their opportunity to showcase their wares, while others have been staples for customers for many years.
