“Stopped in for the first time today. People were very friendly and informative. They let me try several different products. The freeze dried sweet corn is amazing. I also bought one of the scorpion pepper jellies. Got home and mixed the some of jelly with warm cream cheese. It made for some amazing dip for crackers. I will definitely be coming back. Lots of product to choose from. Very unique farmers market. A must visit if you haven't.”
