Returning to their roots What could be better than spending a few hours in the park strolling down the aisles while picking up great organ-ic veggies, picked that morn-ing less than a mile away, checking out local artist and their creations, as you marvel at the cuteness of the baby chickens, before sampling some lip smacking BBQ?

The Fellsmere Farmer’s Market and Mercado is set to open this coming Saturday, September 28 at 9 am and run on the 2nd, 4th and any 5th Saturday of the month at the old school in Fellsmere.

While the emphasis is on homemade, homegrown and local products, small animals and produce, nearly any type vendor is welcome to partici-pate – those who aren’t offer-ing local, handcrafted items can set up in the “mercado.”

The brainchild of City Coun-cilwoman Sara Savage, the Fellsmere Farmers Market and Mercado has grown out of the Community Garden effort, which now spans over multiple properties through-out the city and gives resi-dents a plot of land on which to grow tomatoes, peppers and more. Eddie Mallia was raised in

Astoria, in Queens New York, a diverse convergence of different cultures. From a young age, he was exposed to business. He worked in a fish market at age 12, and was known by all the local mer-chants as “The kid who was always willing to work.” He remembers vividly how he would observe the local mer-chants, often first generation immigrants, inviting passer-bys into their stores, or hag-gling to strike a deal. He ab-sorbed these experiences and they became his foundation for his business education.

At the Fish Market, Eddie was exposed to the details of how a business should be run. In just a short time, he was fluent in, product prepa-ration, and the importance of customer service. His boss always told him how impor-tant it was to “Remember the names of your customers, ap-preciate them, and smile!” In a broken Italian accent, it was explained to Eddie that smil-ing showed your apprecia-tion, and that the customer, “Paid your salary.” The les-son learned was that business was about people, satisfying their needs, and making them

feel happy.

With a new entrepreneurial flame ignited, Eddie’s mind began to race as he began to understand the principles supply, demand, and profit margins. He noticed that ev-eryone on his block, and vir-tually the neighborhood, had backyard gardens. He also knew that his boss would throw away bags of fish by-products. Putting the two together, he would obtain the fish trimmings for free and sell it to his neighbors. Before long, he was mak-ing more in his side business then he was working. The principle of leverage was emerging for him.

Mallia continued to immerse himself in several businesses, throughout his early years. He developed strong business acumen, and a plethora of skills and experiences along the way. He had setbacks, as any successful businessman does, but realized that perse-verance was the antidote to these “speed-bumps” in the road. The perpetual optimist, Mallia would see challenges as blessings.

After years of residing in New York City, Eddie was seriously considering a change in latitude.

He knew that he wanted to be

in Florida, but did not exactly know where. It was then a long time friend had con-veyed to him some of the op-portunities that were arising in Vero Beach.

Eddie took a trip to Vero Beach and was sold! Old Florida charm coupled with a generational opportunity in real estate was the perfect equation in his mind. He hit the ground running and start-ed acquiring single-family houses well below market value, and continued build-ing a portfolio. “There is nothing better than putting in a hard day’s work doing what

I love, and finishing the day by strolling down the block and ending up on a tranquil and serene beach!”

An Evening with C.S. Lewis coming

VERO BEACH — On Oct. 3 acclaimed British actor Da-vid Payne will present “An Evening with C.S. Lewis” in the Vero Beach High School Performing Arts Center, 1707 16th Street.

The dramatic portrayal of the author of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” begins at 7 p.m. and lasts approximately two hours in-cluding an intermission. This one-man show is based on the life and writings of CS Lewis.

It is a heart-warming, funny and inspiring evening that will bring you closer to the man whose intellect and in-terests spanned from writing the children’s classics Chron-icles of Narnia to the land-mark text in the Christian apologist thinking, “Mere Christianity.”

Apart from his undoubted gifts as a writer, Lewis was also a powerful orator, evi-denced by the fact that his

Oxford lectures were al-ways over-subscribed. “An Evening with C.S. Lewis” will be an enthralling theat-rical experience. Thousands have already discovered or rediscovered Lewis and the insights of a man whose col-lected works made him one of the literary giants of the 20th century.

Ian Charles of the South Florida Insider said “Payne’s delivery, subtle movements, expressions and his uncanny ability to speak directly to you and stir you up in your seat kept you riveted and vastly entertained” about a performance at the Kravis Center in West Palm Beach.

For tickets, please call the VBHS Performing Arts Cen-ter Box Office at 772-564-5537. General admission seating is $25 per person. For more information about this event, please visit the web-site www.an-evening-with-cs-lewis.com

Aries: Choosing not to re-spond to someone’s power play will take a lot of self-dis-cipline. You will see a solution, but the question remains: Do you want to work it out? Use your creativity when dealing with a situation that has too many potential outcomes.

Taurus: You’ll want to dis-tance yourself from a very controlling individual who cre-ates a lot of pressure and ten-sion wherever he or she goes. Break away from this person, and the results might make you smile. Suddenly, options will be dropped on your plate. Gemini: You know what you want, and when obstacles ap-pear one right after the other, you easily will find a way to bypass them. You will walk away from any situation that seems too contentious or dif-ficult. You’ll also state your boundaries clearly.

Cancer: Stay focused on what you want. You might be told that you seem to be oriented in one and only one direction. Make that OK. The only differ-ence between you and others right now is that you are not as subtle as they are.

Leo: You can be impulsive, especially when you are de-tached. When you feel so free, trouble easily will find you. Stay focused, look at your op-tions and have an open discus-sion; you will be much happier as a result.

Virgo: Deal with a partner or key persons in your life direct-ly. Someone might cop an at-titude, but it won’t be for long. You will be able to bypass this person’s standoffish behaviour. In a meeting, you’ll see just how many people stand behind you.

Libra: You’ll want to head in a different direction, but some-one could exhibit a provocative and controlling attitude that might restrict you more than you realize. Be willing to listen to a partner, as his her or ideas might be more workable.

Scorpio: You see no other course but the one you are on. Your instincts are to throw yourself 100 per cent into this chosen direction. A boss or someone you look up to prob-ably will walk the other way. Listen to his or her reasons.

Sagittarius: You’ll come up with novel approaches to difficult situations. You are likely to surprise those in your immediate circle. Someone you are dealing with could be an obstacle with his or her need for control. You will find a way to bypass this person. Capricorn: You receive feed-back from friends during the first week that bolster your sense of personal worth. The first six days ring like a bell for you. On the 7th however, you will be at odds with someone. Neither side is willing to com-municate

Aquarius: You might not have intended to be a roadblock for a lot of people, but it appears as though your stubborn ways contribute to that perception. You know why people will try to bypass you — it is easier that way. You might want to rethink your position.

Pisces: Keep conversations moving. You might want to avoid a controlling person. Don’t worry — you’ll be so busy that you won’t cross paths unless you choose to. Be creative with your plans when considering that the weekend is just around the corner.
