Come and enjoy the upscale Friendly Market. The unique setting where 20 or more vendors are located along a winding path through a wooded area.
Rest at the picnic table or a wooden bench while snacking on pastry from one of the bakers.
Mindy Fitzpatrick's famous tomato pies are a sell out item. The market features two fine art artists.

Traci Carr has distinctive wood designs. Nancy Harrington and Sara Pritchard have decorated buoys and other yard art. You may sample homemade fresh salsa at " Thai's Salsa Works" and Ricky Hardison can be seen with his wood scroll saw, scrolling beautiful wood artwork. You can watch Katy Dunn at "Sea Bling" craft her Sea Glass jewelry. Also, Jenn's Jewels custom jewelry designs and Handmade baskets by Ruth Wippich and Elsie Hodge are featured at "The Basket Case", some of which are made from pine straw.

As one roams these shaded paths other vendors are featuring many other quality items.
There are two produce vendors, Garner's Farm and Quinn's Produce and Garner's plant stand who has a very large nursery and plant display. It is a walk that can be enjoyed by one and all.
