Well, after much harrumphing and gnashing of teeth over the holidays, we’ve decided to go ahead and close up operations for Snack at the Farmers’ Market. It turns out the required hours, even when you’re selling on just the weekend, can be a huge strain on every other aspect of your life.

We are sure going to miss it. There’s nothing like making something from scratch one day, and selling it firsthand to friendly customers the next. If anyone out there is thinking of doing something similar, we would highly recommend it. Except for the part where you’re really tired all the time. ;^)

We are basically stopping all sales, so we’ll be closing down the order page of the site. The entire site will probably go dark sometime in the next week or so. (Update: We have since reversed this decision, and are now 110% focused on opening a shop somewhere in the West San Jose/Campbell area. We would also love to return to the Market, so keep your fingers crossed!)

A big THANK YOU to everyone who’s stopped by our booth over the last few months, and especially to all of you who have bought a cupcake or two from us. We’re going to miss you all a ton.

Shannon & Ellen Coffey, Snack
