Think you make the best salsa our volunteer judges have ever tasted? Submit it for tasting (but be kind to our judges - go for flavor, not heat)! Make any type of salsa you love to make: a classic red salsa, salsa verde, maybe even a fruit salsa. All will be judged against all others for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize! Winners will receive Market Bucks. Please bring entries to the Information Tent by 9:30am. For all other rules and prize information, please refer to the entry form.
Millions of peaches, peaches for me... Calling all home bakers! Our Annual Peach Pie Baking Contest is BACK. Two categories you can enter into, three prizes available to win: "Best Peach Only" (using peach as the only fruit in the pie); "Best Peach Pie Plus" (using peaches, creative fruits, dried fruits, nuts, etc.); "Best Presentation" (the best looking pie). As always, we give the best prizes: Market Bucks!
We will remove a slice of pie for the judging and the remainder of the pies go back home with the pie bakers to enjoy at the end of the contest. The contest will take about an hour, depending on number of entries. For all details, rules and information, please refer to the entry form below!
Apple Pie Baking Contest October 14th, 2023 @ 10am
Nothing screams Fall at the Market like an Apple Pie Baking Contest! Enter your homemade apple pie into one of our two categories: "Classic Apple" (using apple as the only fruit in the pie), "Anything Goes Apple" (consisting of apples plus any creative fruit, dried fruit, nut, custard, or ingredient combinations). There's a top prize for each, plus a prize for Best Presentation (because the best looking pie should get some recognition, too). Winners will receive Market Bucks...and bragging rights! For all details, rules and Information, please refer to the entry form below.
These contests are organized and run by volunteers from the Friends of the Farmers' Market. Sending a big thank you to them for ALL their hard work each season!
