Peaches, berries, corn, tomatoes and peppers that are ripe for the picking are among the season’s top offerings now. As the summer progresses, customers will find a changing variety of locally-grown, picked-fresh fruits, veggies and herbs, plus local honey, meat, eggs, baked goods, jams and jellies, gourmet items, original art, accessories, hand-made crafts and more.
One of the O’Fallon market’s unique programs is Gatherings, held from 10 a.m. – 11 a.m., and featuring “Flower Bouquets” by Carrie Dodd and Georgia Glidden on August 6, and the “Basics of Canning” by Linda Langford of Crooked Lane Farm on August 13.
