We will be in our normal spots on the corner of Washington and Main tomorrow for the final market of the season. I know many of you have been wanting more of our baked goods so since we are sold out of pumpkins we are baking all day today! So far we have plain, pretzel and our red, white and blue artisan bread baked. We have everything bagel bread in the oven. Herb and Cheese and Jalapeño Pepper-jack are in the works too. We have cookie dough mixed and chilling and we will see how much we can get done for tomorrow!

Good morning from the New Baltimore Farmers Market. We had a nice little surprise rainbow as we were unloading the truck this morning. Not to worry the rain is moving out and the sun is shining. We have plenty of pumpkins today but not many more besides what we brought to market today. Come see us early for the best selection!

Look what we have! Last year, we grew some loofa gourds and dried them out. Our friends at Scrupulous Soaps took them cleaned them up and made some bars of soap with them. We are so excited to finally be offering loofa soaps. Come out to the New Baltimore Farmers Market today and visit our booth or theirs to get yours until 2pm.

Thank you everyone who came out to the New Baltimore Farmers Market yesterday before the rain came. If you were caught in the rain with us and got some of our baked goods, we hope you enjoy them enough to come back in better weather to purchase some more. We will not be at the market next Sunday and the week after is Bayrama so there will not be a market.

Our next event is a Community Day on June 27th with the Tyler Conklin Foundation at L’anse Creuse North High School. Yes Ty Conklin is a tight end for the Detroit Lions and former Central Michigan Football player. We will have our baked goods along with our crafts at this event. The kiddos are looking forward to the football camp. Come out and see us and support this great cause!

This past week we have been super busy restocking different items. Tomorrow, at the New Baltimore Farmers Market, we will have a couple puzzle designs that are new to the market including a new puzzle altogether. We will also have a bunch of new birdhouses for you to choose from. (The little birdies in our houses at home are getting closer to leaving the nests! At that point we suspect the wrens will beginning to come sing their song for us while they build their summer home)

You will see some modifications to our baked goods tomorrow. Last week, we found out some of the items we have been offering were not allowed under updated Cottage Food Law guidelines, so we had to pull them from our lineup. Do not fret it was only a couple of items and we were able to pivot and create something new. We are also working on finishing a batch of bagels tonight to bring to market in the morning. The rain should be moving out for the length of the market and be a beautiful day. Come to the corner of Washington and Main in New Baltimore where will be set up until 2pm tomorrow!
