Oconee Farmers Market Saturday morning behind Eagle Tavern

Here is what you can expect to see for sale at the Oconee County Farmer's Market behind Eagle Tavern at the corner of First and Third Streets in Watkinsville. Not real certain about what is in a Whoopie pie, but it sounds fun.

Woven brightly,
