On our visit to the Courthouse Green Farmers Market this mornning, I met Gloria Diggs. She's making a rug made out of braided cornhusks! I thought that was so cool. She told me that she learned how to make these rugs from her father, and that these rugs were used in plantations. Gloris says that she has a cornhusk rug that was made by her father that is over 70 years old. Some of the most interesting things at farmers markets are the people! I urge everyone who is near a farmers to go and support them, and to meet interesting, friendly folks.
