Friends and Fireworks

If you’re wondering who’s bringing the Boom, look no further than the dark skies over Lake Glenville – the 26th annual Friends of Lake Glenville Fireworks Over The Lake, held […]

Folks around here can’t say enough good things about all the local produce and goodies to be found at our local farmer’s markets, Locally Grown on The Green in Cashiers and The Highlands Marketplace. Locally Grown on the Green farm stand and local market is held every Wednesday from 2:00 until 5:00 P.M. at The Village Green Commons. The Highlands Marketplace is held every Saturday morning at Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park from 8:00 A.M. until 12:30 P.M. We recommend visiting them both if time allows. Fill your baskets, and later, your tummies, with delicious food from farms and producers next door, not miles away. These products are so fresh you’ll practically be drying the morning dew off them before you cook them. The baked goods smell as though you just took them fresh out of your oven. Each of these fresh markets provide access to in-season fresh produce, locally produced meat, fresh dairy items and eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables, jams, jellies, honey, pickles, freshly baked breads and baked goods, granolas, homemade spreads and dips, and so much more. Speaking of honey, did you know that locally produced honey is said to be helpful in calming seasonal allergies? Allergy season may be waning, but we think you can’t be too kind to your immune system. You’ll enjoy an opportunity to talk to the people who actually grow and produce the food, learning how it’s grown, where it’s grown, and why it tastes so delicious. These hard-working vendors work tirelessly to bring us the very best our region has to offer and when you speak with them, you’ll hear that it’s a labor of love. Could be that love is that secret ingredient that makes it all taste so much better. You’ll also find fresh flowers for your tablescapes and plants and flowers for your landscape and flower boxes. Just imagine Mother Nature’s vivid landscape of colors and you’ll find them right next door at your neighborhood farmer’s market. Make it a weekly ritual to stop by. You’ll be glad you did.
