"Cooking is at once child's play and adult joy.
And, cooking done with care is an act of love."

—Craig Clairborne

What's in season

It's November, so the question is, who's in season? We make this month optional for vendors to attend. Look who said "WE'LL BE THERE!"

Springdale Farms
Formisano Farms
Hymer Farms
DanLynn Organic Farm
Schober Orchards
Fruitwood Orchards and Honey
Hillacres Pride, Cheeses and Meats
Great Harvest Bread Company
Duker T's Catering
La Pooch Patisserie
Flaim Farms (this Saturday)
Rochelle Rose (some dates)
Painted Cottage (weather permitting)
Tortilla Press (weather permitting)

There is still a lot of local produce in season.

Frost can curtail local crops and we've committed to be here for you until Thanksgiving! Farms needing to fill gaps in their inventory before the season ends will clearly mark any supplemental produce with their place of origin.

Organic Report: Dan LynOrganic Farms is bringing Arugula, Bok Choy, Broccoli, Cabbage, Collards, Kale, Beets, Carrots, Rutabaga, and peppers.


Great Harvest Specials

Great Harvest says: "Sale - Oatmeal and Pancake mixes are on sale this week. Save 10% this week only!"

They are baking lots of pumpkin goodies this week. Pumpkin Nut & Spice Bread, Pumpkin Chocolate and Pumpkin Raisin dessert loafs.

Stuffing Bread has returned. Tastes just like stuffing from the turkey, makes an incredible turkey sandwich. Sample a slice at the Market!


It's CRAFT season

We invite local crafters to help fill in the gaps and create interest in November...crafters will be here to display wood crafts, textiles and more.

Crafters choose their own Market dates, so if you see something you love, BUY IT! It won't necessarily be there the next week. It also means there are new things each Saturday to check out.

Crafts are weather-permitting.


Triple Play free drawing winners!

Our winners for the free drawing are Tom P. (DiBartolo Gift Certificate), Linda M. (Tortilla Press Gift Certificate), and Rosemary N. (Pop Shop Gift Certificate). Congratulations!


Let's see a replay—three new winners.

We will repeat the above triple-prize drawing THIS SATURDAY. Come and enter, it's a whole new drawing—we're collecting all new entries this Saturday and picking the winners at the end of the Market day.
