Even the water isn’t chemically treated. “The water I use doesn’t come out of Utah Lake,” he said. “My water comes from a well, so it’s not contaminated. So people who buy our produce know they will never ingest any chemicals.” The difference between Jenson’s produce and others can be tasted, he said. “By letting nature take its course, the flavor, especially of our potatoes, are second to none.” Monster Bubbles, inc. A newer addition to the Park City Farmers Market is Arnold Berg’s Monster Bubbles, which were seen floating across the lot two weeks ago. Berg created his first monster bubble with a string wand in the summer of 2013 at his grandson’s first birthday. The bubble man knew he had something different It was crazy because I started the farmers market at Park City Mountain’s First Time Lot 22 years ago, and now we’re back...” Volker Ritzinger, Park City Farmers Market founder and coordinator when, on a camping trip later that fall, his handiwork drew a crowd. That’s when he created Monster Bubbles, he said. Berg sells a variety of string and net wands and an original bubble mixture that can be mixed with distilled water to create the large and small floating orbs. His bubbles draw spectators of all ages when he does demonstrations, and he lets people try their hand at making bubbles at the Farmers Market as well as other outdoor events. “I have found that while the children like the bubbles, it’s the adults who have a hard time putting down the wands,” he said. Future plans Ritzinger said this season is Park City Farmers Market’s trial period with the Silver King Lot location. “We have a one-year contract because (Park City municipal) wanted to see what type of impact we’ll have,” he said. “When we close in October and review how things went, we’ll go from there.” The success of the Park City Farmers Market up to now is due to its staff, according to Ritzinger. “It has to a lot with surrounding myself with good people,” he said. “I’ve done this for so many years, and I could probably do this in my sleep. But with a new location, it was something new, and we all needed to be coordinated.” Ritzinger is also considering starting up an additional farmers market at the Tanger Outlets in Kimball Junction. “We’ll see how that goes,” he said. “In the meantime, we’re getting some good feedback for coming back to Park City Mountain Resort, the place where we started.” The Park City Farmers Market continues its 2018 season Wednesdays from noon to 5 p.m. at Park City Mountain Resort’s Silver King Lot. The market will close the current season in October. The date will be announced later. Admission is free. For information, visit www.parkcityfarmersmarket.com.
