Charles Norfleet will return this week to the market with Irene's Cheesecakes. He will bring delicious pumpkin cheesecake along with sweet potato, strawberry, blueberry, cherry and plain cheesecakes. Stop by for a sample, take one home or place an order for a holiday goodie.

This week we have more exciting news as we welcome Inez Moore from ENEZO BAKERY KITCHEN as a new vendor. She will have Sweet Potato and Butternut Squash Cream Cheese slices. She will also bring butter pound cake, chocolate pound cake vanilla pound cake and pineapple upside down pound cake. Yummy, Yummy!

So many of y'all have asked about sweet vendors being at the market. So now we have two of them. Come out to support them so they will continue to bring cakes, pies, cheesecakes, etc. for us to enjoy.
