VIDEO: Rainbow Farmers Market Stand Challenge


Our farmers market stand has had all the colours of the rainbow for the last few weeks, but for the first time this week, we are going to merchandise the veggies in the order of a rainbow, in an attempt to make a display so hot, it melts butter. The plan is to order the veggies thusly purple eggplants, green cucumber and zucchini, yellow patty pans, orange carrots, and red tomatoes. Will anyone notice this extraordinary feat, or will it simply be seen as beautiful with the rainbow going unnoticed? You have to watch the video to find that out, but Serina and Ian make it a competition to see who can be right about it, and when you have been married for as long as we have, being unequivocally right is the greatest prize of them all. We also do some (typical) late night harvesting of the eggplants, cukes, beets, and carrots, and if you are good, we might even through in a flower arranging section, where Serina makes a flower bouquet for the market. Perhaps something involving amaranth, zinnias, cosmos, statice, and celosia.

We hope to inspire and motivate others to make positive changes in their lives by sharing our journey towards greater sustainability as we build our family farm.

  1. What are the large dark red tomatoes you sell? Your stand looks incredibly colorful. I would definitely stop by and get one Serena’s rainbow bouquet and have my hands on those beautiful tomatoes if I were in your area.

  2. I wanted to say my daughter and I love you guys. She is 9 months and I have to put your channel on for her to go to sleep. Serena I think it's your voice. Ian I love the humor it literally brightens my day. I'm going to try to garden next year thanks for your channel.

  3. A suggestion for the outside of your roadside stand. Cover the outside with red cedar shingles with white trim around the windows and doors. Would be a real eye catcher and goes well with red roof farm. Love you bouquets

  4. Your flowers always look amazing but with the rainbow veg, pretty cool! Awesome job!!! Wish we lived closer – would love to have fresh veg & flowers all season long.

  5. All the Best to both my Farmers friends.
    I love those bouquets.
    Colors are awesome.
    Don't worry guys, you will make it.
    Rainbow will be successful in the future.

  6. Love the farm stand!!! I could have sworn I was already subbed to your channel. I guess when YouTube does their purge I was deleted from your sub count. Question, what are you using on your canopy to block the sun? Next season we will be doing farmers markets full time. Any tips for set ups will definitely help me out. Great video! Have a great day!
