The Knotter is the easiest and fastest way to do just that. Also see the Liquid Caddy which Dan calls the 'ultimate beverage holder'. With its 4 different attachments (suction cup, velcro, permanent mount, flip mount) you can attach it anywhere ~ and people do! Bikes, boats, strollers, wheelchairs, motorcycles, fish houses ~ even your lawn chair. Kass Winns is here only occasionally so be sure to stop by this weekend.
More and more of our growers are coming each weekend, and boy are we excited to see the fresh, locally grown vegetables they're bringing! Xe Thao and her niece (left) come with beautiful flowers as well as their produce. Last weekend at different grower stalls we saw fresh sugar snap peas, onions, rhubarb, greens for salads, tomatoes, peppers, and more! EAT SMART......EAT HEALTHY.....EAT LOCAL |
Papa Fierro will have Mango Peach Pico de Gallo This Weekend
|  Mango Peach Pico de Gallo. Say that 10 times fast!
In addition to his traditional fare, which rivals anything you'll try out there, Papa Fierro will have a limited supply of his Mango Peach Pico de Gallo for sale. If you haven't yet tried it, you're missing out.
So good that you'll want to come back for more, week after week. Fresh. Local. Farmers Market Quality. Nice!

Market Flowers has Peonies for just a bit longer!
|  We've recently had a bride come just because of our wonderful selection of peonies. We can't think of a more special way to grace your table than fresh, locally grown flowers and it's a real treat to have such a large selection of peonies to choose from. We have many shades of pink available, but also some of the rare white ones. But not for long!
