All of the produce offered by our vendors is "locally grown" by the vendors themselves. They are straight from their farm to the Market to your table. You can't buy any fresher than what our fabulous vendors offer!

And when we say local, we mean that the vendors live within 50 miles of the Market site...right in our community.

We can even go one step further and say not only is the produce local, but everything offered by our vendors is locally produced by the vendors themselves. This includes the crafts, jewelry, soaps, baked goods, jellies, jams, mixes, plants, etc. Our vendors offer quality items at reasonable prices.
