bothbarrels Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 I know i'm probably turning into a 'permissions junkie', but I had a brainwave today.. farmers markets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! here you have a selection of farmers and growers all contained in one area, right in front of your eyes, how easy would it be to get into a conversation and swing the topic round to predation on their beloved crops and livestock?? We have several going on in this area (West Sussex) so I recon I should take a pocket full of contact cards and give it a bash. has anyone else tried this, and what do you recon to the idea?? BB.
