Strawberry Jubilee at Union County Farmers Market

On Saturday morning, May 28th, from 8am-1pm the Farmers Market will be celebrating the mouth watering red strawberry. Some of our produce folks have collaborated with growers in Western Carolina to bring the best strawberries to Union County for sale that day. There will also be lots of crafters, music and a wonderful meet and greet begins our season. There will be jams and jellies and lots of fresh breads and baked goods sold t...hat day, too.

As a special treat, Logan Turnpike Mill will be selling everyone’s favorite – Strawberry Shortcake. Cecelia Holland has a special sweet biscuit recipe she’s baking up, and topping it off with the reddest, sweetest fruit of the season. Cecelia loves the Market and participates every week. She wants more folks to be aware of what a great Market we have here in Union County, so she has generously offered to share half of the proceeds of her Shortcake sales to the marketing efforts of the Farmers Market. So, be sure to help spread the word by purchasing your Shortcake at the Jubilee.

If you would like to participate as a vendor at the Jubilee, please contact our market manager, Mickey Cummings at 706-439-6030. There is no charge for a booth for this event.
