Oregon County Farmers Market Buzz

While it's Craft Event Season here in the Ozarks, (and thankfully, cooler,) be sure and  visit our excellent craft vendors at the Oregon County Farmers Market! Still coming in as well are fresh garden vegetables, and ours is a producer only market focusing on vendors that provide their own products that are grown, raised, or made locally.
 
You will find fresh vegetables and fruit in season, frozen chicken and meat, farm fresh eggs, sorghum, honey, delicious jams and jellies, baked items ready for your table, garden plants, machine embroidered items, lye soaps, and so much more!
 
In addition to the products we offer, the market  encourages patrons to Eat Local, Support Local, to get to know the farmers they are buying from, and where their produce comes from. Educational, fun, free programs for kids of all ages we've put together, with help from our Extension and 4-H folks, have been so popular. We'll be offering more of the same at the end of the month!
 
We'd be happy to know what you, our patrons, would like to see available at the Market, and what programs and information would interest you. Visit our Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/OregonCountyFarmersMarket and  leave us a message. We would love to hear from you!
 
We will continue our market through October each Saturday from 9-1 in the Alton City Park & Pool walking park on Tucker Rd. We are easy to find, just south of Alton on Hwy 19 across from E Hwy. Follow our signs to the beautiful park, convenient parking, and graveled pathway. See you at the market!
