2010-05-08 Saturday - Part 1: Renfro Hardware and Matthews Farmers Market

While I spent most of Saturday at the Barn Sale, I went to the Matthews Farmers Market and Renfrow Hardware for the first time with my friend David.  He is a regular there so he showed me around.  He also showed me a lot of plants and gave me a lot of info about them.  It was a great time and I was very impressed with Renfrow Hardware.  You can get everything from a galvanized bucket to baby chicks.
