Last Market Of The Season!!!

 
This week is our traditional Candy Scramble at noon for the kids, and our vendors will be dressed in Halloween costumes to help set the mood.
There's something special about October markets --- they're the iffiest as far as weather's concerned: Last week we barely got the canopies down before the rain started pouring. Even so, late season markets have a great vibe: Most customers are locals... out to make sure they get the best of the year's bounty.

For this last outdoor market of the year, Savory Pies will be the focus at the booth, Pie for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. These pies serve 4 and come frozen so you can bake them to eat hot out of the oven.  The selections will be Down Home Chicken, Classic Meat, or Italian Sausage and Roasted Vegetable. All pies are made-from-scratch. Of course there will also be a selection of baked fruit pies, pieces of pie and quiches. 

“It’s last market of the season so don’t forget to stock up the pantry with Willowood Farm’s fall harvest bounty.  Winter squash and pumpkins, potatoes – including great deals on 10 lb storage bags, garlic, onions and locally grown dry beans and grains!  Come for the locally famous Rockwell Bean – Whidbey Island’s very own heirloom dry bean.   We’ll have fresh veggies too, including mesclun, arugula, chard, kale, cabbage, broccoli, beets, carrots and probably a few surprises!”
