Carol Joyce has been coming to the Amherst Farmers Market since before I have. That is, shall we say, a long time. She always brings her vast herbal knowledge as well as an unfailing pleasant demeanor to the day. On Saturday, she was, well, read it above, the good garden witch.

Carol, before the era of winter farmers markets, would organize a couple of markets in the winter. They were fun, but have been superseded by the newer institution. At one of them, I made an amateurish video of her explaining her work. She was, despite the cameraman, professional. I hope you like it.
