Farmers Market's
Market Days!
Anna Grace Dixon and Morgan and Owen at the Madison Market
We LOVE going to market. Sure it's a lot of work picking and prepping the produce and hauling it into town but nothing beats the feeling of sharing good food you've produced with people who value the hard work that went into growing it. We would love to meet you and will do our best to make your market experience the best it can be! Currently we sell at the Madison City Farmers Market which opens on April 11th, for the 2015 season. I've listed other area markets, visit one close to you and support your local farmers!!
