What's at the Farmer's Market?

This Saturday will be exciting! TC Smith Produce and Coley Produce will both bring their seasonal produce to sell. Sandra, the egg lady, has free range chicken eggs that are out of this world good, especially when accompanied by Karen from Above the Briery's local honey spread liberally over a crispy piece of toast!

After breakfast, you could take the nicest of baths or showers using all natural soaps, scrubs, lotions, liniments or shampoos which can be purchased from either of our two local soap vendors, Adele's Soaps and Soaps.io. What a great way to start a day! Give it a try!

TJ Designs can help you with your seasonal decorations, especially since Halloween is fast approaching. Rodney, the Pork Skin Man, will have his pork skins, rinds and fried peanuts for sale on Saturday, also. try them crumbled on your next tossed salad or baked potato. Yum 1
