Oconee County, GA Politics

Nothing revolutionary or revelation-ary to report about either, but this is how I spent my Saturday. Bought a coconut pie for $8 behind Eagle Tavern after getting a 12 pack of eggs from chickens from Bostwick fir $2.75 that even came with a green eggs. I bought some lemonade as well. The Farmers Market has moved to the back of Eagle Tavern and that gives it more of a market feel and less of a jumble sale feeling. It will also give the new sod in the front more of a chance to grow and thrive. Later that day we walked up to Town Center and had dinner at Barberiteos. The big screen HDTV was good, The service adequate. The audience sparse, The food was pedestrian, but what would you expect? I hope the restaurant continues to succeed. I need to eat more at Maison Bleu.

Hi Everyone! We will be part of the Fall Festival this Saturday at our usual spot in front of the Eagle Tavern. This week we are jam packed with fresh, locally grown produce, including shiitake mushrooms. We will have THE most wonderful variety of homemade pies, cookies, brownies, cakes and breads! We also will feature sales and demonstrations of making handmade brooms! The Clarke-Oconee Cattlemen's Association will be selling their famous smoked brisket and slicing some up for sandwiches, so be sure and stop by and see us! This will be our final market of this season, but we will return next spring. Thank you to all the vendors and patrons who have helped make the Farmer's Market a huge success! See you next year!
