We came at 4 pm on a Tuesday - literally nobody else on the farm, had it completely to ourselves! We got our buckets from her and got sent off to pick blueberries! Lots of bushes, beautiful farm, cool chickens (a lot of them, off to the side of the field), cute cat, bee hives off to the side, old machinery - honestly just a gorgeous setting. Highly recommend as a date idea, or just to go for fun! Affordable, and very tasty blueberries (and shamrocks )

Found out about this little street fair when an ad for it jumped up on Facebook. Since it was…read moreFriday and we were up for a trip, we took a ride over to Homewood ... and were we pleased. We guess that Homewood - which has a lot of activities and street fairs during the year - hasn't had one in over a year and is just now getting back into the swing. This Homewood Artisan Market seems to be their first post-pandemic event. The Artisan Market is located just a short walk from downtown Homewood and the Illinois Central trains - at Martin Avenue and Hickory Road. There was loads of available street parking and city parking lots. The Market is only on this Friday June 4 (Noon to 6 pm) and Saturday June 5 (10 am to 6 pm). We stopped in right after it opened, and there were between 30 and 50 booths already set up and it looked liked the Market was going to be a big success. The Homewood Artisan Market is free and open to the public, has a nice attention to pandemic safety issues, has good security, and wide open streets to browse the booths. They also had a very big booth with good street food and a broad tented area with picnic tables for sitting down to eat. Since the Artisan Market is set up on a sort of cross-shaped area formed by Martin and Hickory, we include four views of the booths corresponding to the four areas of the cross. Once again, since a picture is worth a thousand words, here are a few thousand words ... . Highly recommended.

The farm stand is in a pair of buildings at this time and they have enough room to expand when more vegetables are harvested. We were not here earlier in the year when the greenhouse does business. There is also a U-Pick section, but we did not try that. We thought it funny when we came to the unshucked corn that there were a few signs warning us to not peel back the husk to look at the corn. We followed the rules and trusted in the product, and we were pleasantly surprised. When we cooked it up later, the corn was perfect and tasty. So even though we did not have the fun of peeling the husks, the corn was VG. We will be back.

On January 19, 2020 Mark transitioned. How he will be missed. His kindness, generosity, warm…read moregreetings, his knowledge, and of course his affordable prices will be missed. He enabled thousands, perhaps millions to eat produce otherwise not affordable in small neighborhood stores or the mega chains. Likes countless others, my husband and I traveled from Chicago to purchase gas and visit Mark's. We never knew what we would purchase, because you didn't always know what would be available. We did know that bananas would be 4#s for $1.00, apples would be .69 cents a pound, and green peppers would be 4/1.00 or 10/1.oo. We always knew we would be warmly greeted by Mark, Jessica, Debbie, and other members of his team. It was a common occurrence to hear, "Mark, what is this? How do I cook this? Can I cook this in soup?" He was always so generous in his immense knowledge of produce. He made it a point of bringing in new produce. He always put extras in your order at checkout. He always made deals when he knew how much you loved something. Many times he sent home extras I passed on to family, friends, and neighbors. Don't think people did not tell him on hundreds of occasions how much he was appreciated, but sometimes it seemed he couldn't enjoy the love because he was so immersed in keeping his store stocked and running smoothly. He was such a blessing to me, my husband, aunt, and others. Mark....now you can rest on your laurels and enjoy the love and appreciation we all had for you. Now you can replay the compliments, fleeting conversations, and testimonies shared while you were tending to your customers and staff. Thank you Mark. You are missed and loved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
