This week there was a produce stand in entrance of it. That’s not unusual right here. Small distributors will pull up alongside the street / avenue, and have a ‘pop-up’ stall promoting no matter produce is in season.
Mon mari was driving purchase and stopped to purchase strawberries. He appeared inside and noticed extra tables with extra greens.
He advised me.
I went the following day.
