Apple Harvest!

September 22, 2011

apples

It’s time to get your heapin’ helpin’ of  the finest local apples.  The cooler air and Autumn’s official welcome has us craving apple pie, apple cider, candied apples…all the yummy possibilities.  Our vendors will be offering special apple themed treats this week and our apple vendor is bringing in truck loads of apples.  Market Peaches (who brought us those scrumptious peaches) is stocking up on all sorts of apple goodies as well; fried apple pies and cider.  The apples come fresh from Mercier Farms direct to Brookwood Farmers’ Market.

We will also have lots of apple themed games for the kids to play and win prizes.  Fresh & Frozen Hawaiian Shave ice will again have “caramel apple” flavor!

Also, if you haven’t noticed hair feathers are all the rage among young girls and we have a new vendor this week, Hair Connection who will be doing hair feathers (at a cheaper price than most places around town).

Come on out and see us this Friday!
