[QUOTE="MacConnell, post: 9288094, member: 6855223"] Not much trade is conducted with the regular caravans that pass through, as necessary tools and construction materials are usually acquired, when needed, by deliberate expedition of a local resident or two. The tavern is the main source of outside income, as the caravaners, when stopping to rest, will make a point of eating the fine fare that is offered, especially pies and breads, made from the various locally grown crops, and baked fish, collected from the river. Corn, which grows naturally and prolifically as the forest gives way to the prairie, to the north and the south, is gathered by collectors, who operate the newly constructed grist mill. Wheat is sometimes purchased from Boga City. Due to the convenience of the location, several stone ovens have been constructed in a plaza area outside of the tavern, and the reputation for the quality of the food is spreading. There are outside dining tables placed on the same plaza, which allow customers the privilege of smelling all and seeing some of the cooking, while enjoying a meal. The ambiance created by such an idea has become popular, even the locals like to sit down and eat there. The tavern is located on the northern side of the bridge and the western side of the road, within sight of the where the smaller stream, upon which the bridge and town are built, joins the main river, farther to the west. The oven plaza is adjacent to and on the western side of the tavern, farther from the road. The daily operations of the tavern and customer service are overseen by Merita, a Centrin woman and the heartmate of Gastrobon, who manages the actual cooking, doing much of it himself. The grist mill, operated by Grandon, a Centrin man, is on the northern side of the bridge and a few hundred strides upstream to the east. Pumpkins are grown on the northern side of the bridge and the eastern side of the road, where the crop can be seen in passing. The town even has a festival dedicated to the harvesting of the pumpkins. Trees had to be cleared to make space for farming. All agricultural ventures are overseen by Farlen and Hortica, a Centrin couple. A great amount of fishing is done by each respective family to collect meat for its own consumption, but a collective effort is done using canoes and nets. The collective fishing, which can interfere with individual catches, is scheduled and announced to the town. This process is managed and overseen by Killian, a Spiofthest man, who moves the operation to different locations along the river to maximize his catch and minimize the interference upon the other town members. With a silk supply coming in from South Road Fair, better nets are being stitched using it, instead of the more rudimentary gut material. [/QUOTE]
