🚨 HALFWAY ALERT! 🚨
Can you believe this Saturday is Market #10 of the 2026 season? 😲 That means we're officially at the halfway point! Where did the summer go? We swear it was just yesterday we were wondering if we'd ever stop wearing sweatshirts.
While most people have been relaxing this week... we've been in a committed relationship with cucumbers. 🥒❤️
In just the last 3 days we've canned:
🥒 120+ pounds of pickles
🫘 20 pounds of dilly beans (which somehow magically became 38 pints!)
🌶️ Fresh salsa
🥒 Relish
🍓 Piles of jam and jelly
And for those of you keeping score at home...
🥒 We're closing in on 500 POUNDS of cucumbers turned into pickles this season! 🤯
Meanwhile, Angie has apparently decided sleep is optional. 😆 She's been busy distilling fresh hydrosols, making shampoo and conditioner bars, whipping up more magnesium butter, and dreaming up all kinds of crazy, unique creations that somehow turn into everyone's new favorite product. We never know what she'll come up with next... but it's almost guaranteed to be awesome!
At this point, we smell like vinegar, essential oils, and a hint of "what's Angie making now?" The neighbors probably just refers to us as "The Pickle People with the Weirdly Amazing Stuff".
Stop by the market this Saturday from 9–1 on Second Street in downtown Bemidji and help us celebrate the halfway mark! Or if you are out and about downtown, stop into the store and check everything out!
So whether you're craving a crunchy pickle, a jar of homemade jam, spicy salsa, handmade soaps, candles, hydrosols, shampoo bars, magnesium butter, or one of Angie's latest mad-scientist creations, we've got the table stocked and ready.
See you soon... unless the cucumbers stage a takeover first. 🥒😂
