That being said, we may not have time to fulfill your requests, but we will do our best to accommodate them! Several years ago, a grand Southern lady and my husband were discussing pie baking. She asked him if he had ever baked a plum pie and he replied "No, I don't believe I ever have!" She then in her slow Southern draw replied, "You call yourself a pie baker and you've never baked a plum pie?" It was a conversation that you had to be there to get the full effect and we have laughed about is ever since. That lovely lady has long left this earth, but her memory lives on in our hearts. Thus, the name of my page.

I'm posting to remind everyone that we have become so busy on Thursday and Friday and we have stopped taking orders on those two days during the Farmers Market season. Please place your orders by Wednesday so I can adjust my regular pie schedule to accomodate the extra orders. We do not have time to answer the phones on Thursadys and Fridays.

💚 WOW... THANK YOU, EFFINGHAM! 💚

What an incredible Opening Day for the 2026 Effingham Farmers Market season!

We are overwhelmed by the support shown by our community on Saturday morning. The turnout was absolutely amazing and, without a doubt, one of the largest crowds we've seen in years. Many of our vendors were completely sold out by 10 AM—or even earlier! 🥕🍓🧁

To every customer who came out to shop, visit with vendors, enjoy the entertainment, and support local businesses, THANK YOU. Your support means more than you know.

What many people don't see are the countless hours spent behind the scenes planning, organizing, recruiting vendors, coordinating entertainment, designing layouts, solving challenges, and working to make the Effingham Farmers Market the very best it can be. Seeing so many smiling faces and such an incredible turnout makes all of that hard work worthwhile.

Saturday's success wasn't just a win for the Effingham Farmers Market—it was a win for every farmer, baker, maker, artist, small business owner, and customer who believes in supporting local. We are incredibly grateful and excited to see our community come together in such a big way.

As wonderful as Opening Day was, we're just getting started! We hope you'll continue to make the Effingham Farmers Market part of your Saturday morning routine each week through October 31st.

Join us every Saturday from 8 AM–12 PM on the Old Courthouse Lawn in Downtown Effingham and help us continue building something special for our community.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making Opening Day such a tremendous success. We cannot wait to see what the rest of the season brings! 🌻🛍️💚
