Scroll down to view the complete list of who will be vending this week
Since 1995, nearly 30 years, the Mineral Point Market has been a part of the community! Throughout the years we’ve had vendors come and go but the market is still the place to get local, handmade, wonderfully grown products for your home and table.
Here’s a look at some of our past vendors. Remember them?
And while we’d love to have all these vendors still at the market, the market continues to evolve gaining new vendors throughout each season. This month especially, marks a new beginning for several vendors. Saturday, August 12th, will be Glenda’s Tomales & More’s debut! She’ll have tomales and more!😉 In addition, Eileen Fitsimmons will also be attending for the first time with her son’s Mariachi peppers (a not too hot, 500-600 heat units, pepper).
Please join us each week and celebrate the abundance that is the Mineral Point Market. Open Saturday mornings 8:30-11 in Water Tower Park.
Here is a partial list of items at this week’s market:
Beef, Pork, Chicken, Bacon, Brats, Burgers, Eggs, Cheese, Artisan Breads, Coffee, Sweet and Savory Baked Goods, Sweet Corn, Potatoes, Green Beans, Tomatoes of every size, shape, & color, Onions, Leeks, Beets, Carrots, Peppers (Sweet & Spicy), Cabbage, Zucchini & Summer Squash, Lettuces, Eggplants, Swiss Chard, Cucumbers, Basil, Cilantro, Dill, & other Herbs, Soup, Honey, Pickles, Artistic Drawings & Engraved Items, Afghans & Assorted Crocheted Items, Goat Milk Soaps and Shampoos, Hand Poured Candles, Fresh Cut Flowers, and much more. Come and check it all out!
We look forward to seeing you this Saturday in Water Tower Park, Business Hwy 151 at Madison Street, Mineral Point! 8:30 to 11:00 a.m.

Barham Gardens
Looks like we won’t make it this Saturday. Hope it’s a good one! My husband, Kim, and I currently grow Aronia (chokeberries) on an acre plot. We are enthusiastic about this native berry which is a valuable early season food for bees, and once mature (late August through early September), they are good for humans as well, containing numerous health benefits. (We will have brochures at the market with more detailed information and starter recipes.) So, though the fresh berries are available only in season, Roberta uses them in Aronia Applesauce and Aronia Rhubarb jam (which is very delicious) which she will vend at the market while quantities last. Recipe books are also available. More information can be found at our website.
Additionally, Roberta hand weaves rag and fleece rugs and weavings, saving much from entering the waste stream and allowing another functional and practical life. More information about these products can be found here. She also fashions felted accessories.
Bures Berry Patch
It’s our sweet corn’s debut this Saturday!😀🌽 Don’t miss out as we’ll only have this tasty stuff for 2-3 weeks.😋 This week we’ll also have our New Baby Red & German Butterball potatoes, fresh picked Green Beans (final week), as well as Sunflowers, pure, local Honey, Asparagus Soup, and dilly beans. Can’t make it to market this week? Head out to our farm store! We’re open daily from 9-6p. For more information, head to our website, Facebook, or Instagram account, or give us a call at 608-924-1404. Hope to see you in the Patch or at market Saturday! Farmer Kathy and Farmer Ed

Just Poured Candle Co.
We’re back this Saturday! My name is Holly Adams, and I created Just Poured Candle Co. in 2022 with the support of my family and husband David, a Mineral Point native. Why? Well, I love candles and I love to make things. As a full-time caregiver for my husband, who suffered a C4 spinal cord injury and stroke in 2016, I found candle making as a creative outlet to help relieve everyday stress and fulfill a passion.
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 & tick repellent, and lip balm.
Mineral Point Market Dates: June 10th , July 8th , August 12th , & September 9th

Preston Creek Soapery – Julia Sheppard – Mineral Point
I’m back again August 26th! Preston Creek Soapery was founded in 2017 when I started to make handmade soap as a way to funnel my creative energy and calm my sensitive skin. I really enjoy formulating and making small batch vegan soap and shampoo bars, which progressed into making bath and foot soaks, bath bombs, whipped body butter and soap dishes. From day one on my soaping journey, as a vegetarian I chose to make vegan, palm free products. I use high quality skin loving ingredients such as oils, butters, coconut milk, clays, colloidal oatmeal and aloe. I live in Mineral Point with my husband Jeremy on our alpaca farm. Breeding and raising alpacas is a complete joy! In the future I hope to bring my alpaca yarn to the market. I’m so excited to meet you all on the following Saturday mornings: June 24th, July 22nd, August 26th, September 23rd and October 7th.

Shooting Star Farm
As I mentioned last week, I want to give advance notice that I will not have a stand at the Saturday, August 19th Market. You can still pre-order products, and Galen will be at the Market to help distribute them to you. Also, the ordering window will be open a day early and end a day early that week (due by Wednesday at 6pm instead of Thursday). I will be offering Wednesday home deliveries or farm pick-up on August 16th, so that may be another option. Ordering information is on my website.
On to the products! Salad greens are in short supply week (and possibly next). Earlier lack of rain, more recent excessive humidity, and a few missed plantings are all catching up to me. I’ll be short for a few weeks but will try to provide some. I do have some nice heads of romaine, red leaf, and butter lettuces. Other items I hope to harvest include cherry tomatoes, heirloom and saladette tomatoes, red slicing tomatoes, green beans, sweet bell and Italian frying peppers, shishito peppers, Italian and Japanese eggplants, bunched carrots, multi-color beets, bunched red beets, Swiss chard, cucumbers, zucchini and summer squash, fresh white onions, Italian bottle onions, possibly tomatillos and a few hot peppers, a small selection of baby lettuce heads, basil, cilantro, and dill. You can pre-order for Market. Info and instructions are on my website. See you Saturday.
