VENDOR APPRECIATION


A special thanks to all the vendors and shoppe owners who bring us the great finds throughout the weeks at Shady Hollow!

We appreciate you coming to the Market every weekend and setting up and sharing with us!


Hope to see you next weekend and at the next vendor picnic over the long Fourth of July weekend! Remember the Kiddie Parade too!





GRAMPA'S TREATS

A fair favorite has arrived at the Market! These are not your ordinary "dogs"!! These are a hand-dipped variety and made on site! Whether you eat yours with ketchup or mustard, this is a crowd pleaser!

Each dog is individually hand-dipped and fried to a perfect golden crisp! Couldn't you just go for one, or two now! We only have a few short months to get your fix of these great wonders! Who could pass up such a tasty treat!


YUM!!! The finished product..........






Grampa's also has 12 flavors of Hawaiian Ice, as well as the popular Lil' Orbits mini donuts to round out a great lunch and afternoon snack! (They also make an awesome breakfast!!)
Well worth the wait!!

PAPA DIO'S

There's some fabulous cooking going on at the Market! If you're not hungry by this time, well, there just might be something wrong with you!

From beef brisket, home style fries, Frito Pie, hand pattied hamburgers, Papa Dio's is certainly going to win you over! If you're on the go, start your day off with a breakfast taco, your choice, eggs and potatoes, eggs and charizo, or eggs and bacon, (did I mention the handmade tortilla??) the price is right, you might just want to try all three...but make sure you leave room for lunch, or an afternoon snack!!






Stop by and welcome the Mirandas to the Market and enjoy some excellent home cooking!

PATINA WHITE


Always a favorite stop at the Market, Beth is back again this year with Patina White. You will always find truly unique selection of "less than serious goods for self, soul & surroundings". In particular, I love the signage she always carries, the "Eat" sign was gone by the time I got back, so if you ever see one wandering about, let me know, I want it!!!











Patina White also features an amazing array of whimsical wearables ranging from artisan collage charm jewelry to bracelets and necklaces fabricated from vintage typewriter keys. You'll find junkyard art to enchant your home & garden plus off beat gifts thoughtfully created & gathered for all occasions! a must see at the market! Also be inspired & informed by her website~www.patinawhite.com...happy day!

IN THE THICKETS


Well, if you're like me and don't have much of your gardening done, you're in luck!!

Lori is back with her daughters and selling her Proven Winners again! And boy are they healthy and full of blooms! I'm not sure where you would find Proven Winners at such a good price, either! Four inch pots of all your favorites for just $3.00, or four for $10.00, even cheaper if you buy an entire flat of 15 for $30.00.........I'll let you do the math on that one!!





As far as I know, when they pulled out last Sunday, their plan was to come back again this Sunday, so get your plans laid out and figure out how many planters you have left to fill! These always sell fast, especially the favorites.....come early to get what you need! The growing season is short and she only has so many to sell!
