There is none fresher, other than your own back yard. Come early while supplies are plentiful. We sell out fast.

  IT'S FAIR TIME  Today is the last day inside the building until after the fair is over. After today you can find us over under the grandstands until the fair, at which time we will be set up just beyond the grandstands and to the left in what was Civitan Park. We will once again be part of the Fair this year and if you were planning to come to the market on that Saturday, I'm sorry, but you would be charged the usual fair admittance fee. We suggest you get your produce on the Wednesday before the fair opens. We always look forward to seeing you and caring for our customers is our first priority.

This month will end our summer "Wednesday market  event". Hope you have been able to take advantage of our mid week market. We have enjoyed serving you.

Our regular Saturday morning market will continue all year long as always. We are hoping to have more greenhouse grown produce to offer this winter.  

See you at the Market.
