Come on out and meet our newest vendors: Dave Woods and his daughter, June. Dave is an avid fly fisherman, guide and author who brings a great assortment of hand-tied flies along with plenty of stories to tell. June creates beautiful handmade jewelry, including heavy plated steel, sterling silver and gold-filled pieces. Check out the “David Woods” Facebook page for photos and more information!
Looking ahead to next week, our Fall Festival is Oct. 24 with our vendor-only chili cook-off and pumpkin carving contest. Customers vote for the best chili and most creative pumpkin! The day will also include activities for kiddos, great food and crafters, with more details coming soon.
Falling Spring Farm is also continuing to serve all of their specialty drinks —including kombucha on tap, iced coffee, boba drinks and fresh-squeezed lemonade— in cute, reusable “Boo Buckets!”
Join us this Saturday for fall produce, fall mums, plenty of fall baked goods, hot food, local meats, artisan crafts and great camaraderie!
