Farm Market picture.

Somehow Jane and I ended up on the farm market website. Neither of us were aware the picture had been taken and posted until today when a few customers mentioned it. :laugh:

That's a really nice photo Perry!  I'd be talking royalties!
Share that which you have an abundance of.  In doing so both the giver and receiver are enriched.

Looks like the two of you represented beeks well.

I wasn't expecting the beard.

Should they have posted it without your permission ?

I would bet that in the yearly contract there is something that would allow them to use a picture like that. They are good people running the market, it really is one of the premier markets in NS (besides Halifax Seaport Market), and it certainly doesn't hurt our sales any to see such handsome folk.  :-[ ;D :D

barbarian, i did a gig at an upscale craft fair last fall. the hosts posted pix on a facebook page. i wasn't so sure i wanted a pic of me pasted on facebook, but i didn't care about the pix of my table.

the pix they posted of my table brought customers to the craft show just to buy honey from me. 8)

Perry, I have thought about your picture for a couple of days now.  What a compliment!  They used your picture, I think, because you produce a quality product, have a good reputation, and are a face that is associated with the market.

You are very kind to Perry, but we all know they used the pic for his wife's pic and it was too difficult to cut him out.

Just kidding, Perry. Looks good. :)

I’m gonna print that pic and keep it in my Bee jacket. When checking a mean hive I’ll pull it out and wave it over them to calm them down. :laugh:
