In 2011 we started a farmer’s market in the parking lot with 6 vendors.
Since then we have grown every year. We even successfully reopened during the quarantine during 2020. This will be our 11th year!
We are completely volunteer run, and use the fees from the market for advertising, upkeep of the space, and other market related expenses. This market is our ministry: we want to help local farmers & vendors and create a space for the community to gather. We are volunteer run, and appreciate any all donations.
Market opens May 24th and runs from 3-6pm every Tuesday til the end of September. We typically see 300-500 customers a week and are open rain or shine!
We do have a limited number of spots open if you do not repeat a product already available: applications

"Publisher after publisher turned down A Wrinkle in Time," L'Engle wrote, "because it deals overtly with the problem of evil, and it was too difficult for children, and was it a children's or an adult's book, anyhow?" The next year it won the prestigious John Newbery Medal.
Tolkien states in the foreword to The Lord of the Rings that he disliked allegories and that the story was not one.[66] Instead he preferred what he termed "applicability", the freedom of the reader to interpret the work in the light of his or her own life and times.
