As we begin our 26th Market Season we are sad to announce the passing of one of our long time vendors, George Pouy (POW-ee) of C and G Farm. George passed away Tuesday, January 6, 2026. George was not only our resident organic farmer he was also our friend and to many of us here at the Market, he was our family. Please keep his wife Carol and their kids in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

At the first market of the season Saturday, January 31 we are asking people to come and share a special memory of George, a special note to the family or whatever on paper that will become a memorial book that will be given to his family during his Celebration of Life on February 7. More details on this celebration will be announced as they are finalized.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at the Market this coming Saturday.
