Hello MP Market Goers!
The Fourth of July weekend is almost here, and Mineral Point is getting ready for one of its favorite traditions! With a full weekend of festivities planned throughout town, we wanted to remind you of one important change:
This week’s Mineral Point Market will be held on Friday, July 3rd, from 3:00–6:00 pm.
As Water Tower Park transforms for the holiday celebration, we’re moving to a special Friday afternoon Pop-Up Market — making it the perfect way to kick off your holiday weekend.
Before the parades, fireworks, family gatherings, and backyard cookouts begin, stop by the market to pick up everything you need for the weekend.
Whether you’re looking for fresh produce, meat for the grill, artisan breads, Wisconsin cheeses, baked treats, beautiful flowers, honey, eggs, or handmade goods, our vendors will have you covered.
Planning to grill? Hosting family? Need a last-minute side dish or dessert? The market is a great place to stock up while supporting the local farmers, bakers, and artisans who make our community so special. And speaking of baking…both Sunnyside Down Farm and Farmer’s Daughter Bakery & Kitchen will be working hard this week so be sure to get your pre-orders in for a delicious treat to add to your celebrations! Insider tip: Farmer’s Daughter has grazing dessert trays on special and Sunnyside Down has TO DIE FOR pies!😋
We’ve also included a schedule of this weekend’s community events so you can make the most of everything happening around town. We hope you’ll enjoy all that Mineral Point has to offer — and that you’ll start your celebration with a visit to the market!

Farmer’s Daughter Bakery and Kitchen
Hello market friends! The extended weekend of the 4th of July is upon is!
You know what goes great at parties and picnics? Grazing Trays. Or straight up 1/4 sheets of your favorite treats.
Here’s how it’ll work:
Grazing Trays: mix/match a baker’s dozen (13) of your favorite dessert bars. We cut them into approximately 1″ pieces and stack them into a covered tray for you to set on the table and share. America is 250 years young this year. Those 13 bars usually cost $33. This Friday, that package is $25. ** These are best as a pre-order ** I may be able to bring supplies to accommodate the building of a smaller package (an 8-9 bar Grazing Tray) at market, but let’s try to get those pre-orders done and in!
1/4 Sheets: pick your favorite(s) and let us do the baking. A solid pan ready for you to cut, or, tell me how many pieces you want it cut into. Usually $25. This Friday, $20.
** Here’s the list of Bars and Treats for you to choose from **
Choose 1 of each (and #13 for yourself – we won’t tell!); 4 of a few different ones; or half and half for your custom combination!
~ S’mores, Oatmeal Fudge, Lemon Bars, Apricot Lemon, Peanut Butter Bars, Carmelitas, Cherry Coffeecake, Mint Brownies, Cranberry Walnut, Strawberry Lemon Blondies, Gingerbread, Cookie Bars ~
We will also have banana chocolate chip muffins and lemon blueberry muffins, as well as cinnamon rolls. We will not have scones this week.
**Remember – we always accept pre-orders! Email us: farmgalsbake@yahoo.com.. Call/text us 608-214-3475. Message us on our Facebook page. Send a smoke signal, lol… We’ll see you all Friday afternoon!

My mission is simple. Provide hand-crafted, non-toxic candles that add warmth and inspiration to any room. All my candles are made from 100% soy wax, from soybeans grown in the United States. I also do not use any dyes or additives, and only high-quality fragrance oils that do not contain parabens or phthalates.
In addition to making candles, I make several other all natural products as well. Some of my other products include room sprays, bug and tick repellent, and lip balm.
