October 19th's Market has a great deal to offer. There will be plenty of butternut squash, potatoes, and produce for you to stock up on for the winter. It is time to chop and freeze all of the delicious vegetables our local farmers have been growing for us, so that we can get through the winter months. There will also be plenty of pumpkins for pumpkin pie, stuffed pumpkin, or for jack-o-lantern fun.
