Hello MP Market Goers!
Happy New Year!
Our 2025 season begins Saturday, May 3rd in Water Tower Park!
Our vendors are looking forward to spring and are getting ready for the first market by purchasing seeds, starting plants in the greenhouse, managing their animals, working in their craft rooms, and so much more. Follow our Facebook/Instagram accounts for the latest on our vendors and their winter happenings. And if you need something from one of our vendors, scroll down to find what’s available throughout the winter.
Hope to see you in the park this Spring!

Happy New Year! The Patch is CLOSED this winter due to a less than usual number of chickens, but we hope to be back to full egg production come spring. Throughout the winter we’ll be spending time championing our kids in their endeavors and planning for our 23rd year in the business of growing fresh fruits and vegetables. For more information, head to our website, Facebook, or Instagram account, or give us a call at 608-924-1404. Hope to see you back in the Park this spring! Farmer Kathy and Farmer Ed

The Cornish Baker
We are blessed to be able to bake from home under Wisconsin’s Cookie Bill. We have been baking for many years and have decided to share them with you!
We started at the Mineral Point Market in late July 2022. Our time there greatly exceeded our expectations and we have continued with special orders and events since. 😊
You can place a special order with us or reserve items from our Mineral Point Market list at thepropercornishbaker@gmail.com or through Facebook Messenger @thecornishbaker.
Farmer’s Daughter Bakery and Kitchen
Well it’s been a minute!
What have we been up to up on the hill?
Catching longer and later sunsets. Baking cookies (195 ish dozen total). A Christmas shopping dinner date with Brian. Catching some kids charging in the sun. And, better late than never, wishing you all a very successful 2025!
We look forward to seeing all of you again over the winter and at the start of the market seasons! 🥰
Keep an eye on our Facebook page; @FDBOnTopOfHillcrest; to see what the kids are up to (Sam and Carly and the goats… 🙄😆)
We’ll see you all soon!

We would like to thank everyone for there support this market season. See you next season with bedding plants in May!
Laxey Creek Sheep Ranch
Laxey Creek Sheep Ranch is restocking the freezer in November to be ready for all your winter meals. We thank you for supporting us during our second market season.
Lamb cuts are available year-round by appointment at the farm or from Cathryn’s Market in Dodgeville.
We are taking orders for half and whole lambs, which is about $100 savings compared to buying the same quantity of our retail cuts.
Our animals are grass-fed, which means they graze lush pastures all summer and high quality stored forage in the winter. They live in a low-stress environment with livestock guardian dogs who keep predators away, and see the shepherd every day when he makes the rounds to check that they are still on prime pasture.

Our Homestead formerly Magic Light Photography
I would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to everyone who supported not only me, but all of the wonderful market vendors this year! Just because we won’t be meeting at the park on Saturday morning doesn’t mean that you can’t still get our farm fresh, pasture raised eggs, and our local, raw honey! Both of these will be available going into winter and can be picked up at the farm. I may also be able to make deliveries in Mineral Point, and possible Dodgeville. We also have a few of our recycled feed bag totes available. As we stock up on feed for the winter, we may be creating some new totes with different designs so look for those in the future. I haven’t talked much about my photography this season, but that doesn’t mean my photo cards aren’t still available, because they are! All of my cards are now being sold at Sullivan’s located at 303 Commerce Street in Mineral Point. All of my cards are blank inside and can be used for any occasion! You can follow the Our Homestead Facebook page to see what’s happening at our little farm!
Thanks,
Mike

PJ’s Poultry
PJ’s Poultry will have chicken and eggs available for pickup at the farm this coming winter. Our chicken inventory will be mostly everything we sell during the summer. We don’t raise birds during the winter, so some cuts sell out faster than others do (boneless breasts go the quickest).
Give us a call Jennifer 608-642-4005 or Perry 608-642-0818 call or text. Facebook Messenger works as well. Email us at: pjs.poultry.llc@gmail.com

We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! While it’s still winter for a few more weeks, we’re already looking ahead to warmer days and spring planting preparations are underway. Seedlings are being started indoors and we’ll be eagerly awaiting the first tulips to make their debut in early spring. Until then, stay up to date and get a preview of what flowers we’ll be growing this year by following along on our Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/RuralRootsWI.
Shooting Star Farm
The last Mineral Point Market is in the rear-view mirror and it was a good one! The unseasonably warm weather is telling us “there must be more”, but the calendar tells us it’s time to be done. Although this mild fall has made going to market especially pleasant lately, we vendors know that our customers are not just fair-weather friends. You’ve shown up through rain, wind, frost, and even sleet (more than once). I love seeing you each and every week and truly appreciate your support for my little farm. Have a wonderful fall and a beautiful holiday season. I’m hoping for snow. Lots of snow. See you around town! – Jenny

WWB Studio
Hello Mineral Point Market goers. I had a great year of meeting new people, catching up with the ‘regulars’ and spending time with the other vendors. I do not have a website or facebook page, but would be happy to have you visit my studio or have me come to you to choose a drawing or note cards. We live in Platteville, so if you are coming this way, call and I will give you directions, or likewise if you wish me to come to you, call and give me directions or a convenient meeting place.
Also, if you get a chance, special kudos to Kathy and Jenny for their efforts to make the Mineral Point Market a destination!!!
