Chapter 9 starts with the story of how Billy the Irish man established the local market and saw it expand beyond his expectations. The marke is a multi-cultural venue of delightful people.
In this chapter 9 story Luc, the French Baker, shares his story of coming to Barbados and starting a bakery. He makes some of the best french bread you will find anywhere- My choice is his sourdough.
Luc is not alone, there are about a dozen artisans who enhance the day with their own colourful story. It is a mini-United Nations with artisans who are Bajan, French, Britsih and others mingling with visitors from everywhere.
The Hastings Market is just off the South Coast Boardwalk, a favourite place to walk along the ocean, with its changing tides, wind-blown sand mounds, waves, surf, and weather. People amble, jog, stop to stare, or pelt along for their daily workout. In the center of the boardwalk is the bandstand. From there, and on either side, one can see the bright pink Santa Neta apartments, the ArtSplash Learning Center, a patio cafe, and the farmers market.
