Before leaving the Homestead Heritage area, we made one final stop at the Homestead Market. I'm…read moreglad we did because this place was the perfect way to wrap up our visit. The market is exceptionally clean, well organized, and beautifully maintained. Everything was neatly displayed, making it easy to browse without feeling rushed. Working behind the counter was Ms. Jenna. She greeted us with a warm smile and a friendly, welcoming attitude that made us feel right at home. She kindly let us know that if we needed anything, all we had to do was ask. We took our time wandering through the store, looking at all the unique items they had to offer. I couldn't leave empty-handed, so I picked up two bags of their chipotle-flavored pecans as souvenirs for my brothers. Whether they'll share them with anyone else is another story entirely. The Homestead Market is a really neat place and well worth a visit. I have no doubt I'll be back the next time I'm in the area. Maybe I'll see you there!

Then ordered 5 lbs of pork, and he put it on the scale it said 6 but walked away and it said 5. I got to my car thinking I was overcharged and so I looked at my receipt and BAM! He charged me for 6lbs of pork and 14.96lbs in chicken. I paid $10 more for meat that I DIDN'T get! So be careful.
