Living Up to our Motto: We're More than just Corn and Tomatoes!

When you think of a farmers market, what comes to mind? Maybe rows of fresh produce—juicy tomatoes, sweet corn, and crisp greens. But at the Pendleton County Farmers Market, we proudly live up to our motto: More than Corn & Tomatoes.


While you’ll certainly find farm-fresh food from local growers, you’ll also discover a treasure trove of handcrafted goods made by talented artisans in our community. These aren't just pretty decorations—they're practical, beautiful, and made with care.


Handmade with Heart

Crochet Creations

Soft, huggable, and stitched with skill, the crochet animals at our market aren’t just for kids. They’re keepsakes. Whether it’s a tiny stuffed cow, a cheerful frog, or a wise old owl, each one is crafted with love. And if you’re looking for something practical, you’ll also find reusable Swiffer pads—because cleaning should be both sustainable and stylish!


Varieties of crocheted items that will be available this year at the PCFM, from mini purse to hold your coins from Lawson’s Crochet & Woodburning, to re-usable swiffer pads and stuffed "peep" that makes the perfect addition to your Easter basket.


Jewelry & Burned Hats

From hand-strung necklaces to intricately burned leather patches on hats, our artisans bring wearable art to the market. Looking for a one-of-a-kind gift? A custom hat with a hand-burned design might be just the thing.


Handburned hat from Hilltop Highland Cattle Farm comes in multiple different colors and designs. They make amazing gift - like for the upcoming Mother's Day!

Poured with Purpose

Each small-batch candle is hand-poured with care by Sue at Catalpa Ridge, blending cozy scents and simple ingredients to create a warm, inviting glow. Whether you're unwinding after a long day or setting the mood for a quiet evening, these handcrafted candles bring comfort and charm to any space.


These candles made their debut at PCFM last year and became one of our patron's favorites.

Hand-Warming, Soul-Soothing Rice Packs

Winter may be behind us (for now), but there's always a need for comfort. Locally made rice hot packs can be warmed up to soothe sore muscles or cold hands. And come the chill of autumn, you’ll be glad you grabbed one!


Handcrafted and filled with jasmine rice, these therapeutic bags offer soothing warmth or cooling relief. Microwave to ease aches or freeze for cold therapy. Each comes with a washable cover and can be scented with your favorite essential oils—just keep the inner bag dry for lasting comfort.

More Than a Market—A Community

The Pendleton County Farmers Market isn’t just a place to shop; it’s a place to connect. When you buy a crochet animal, a hand-sewn apron, or a burned leather hat, you’re not just supporting a small business—you’re investing in your community. Every item has a story, and every purchase keeps those stories alive.


Come visit us this season, meet the makers, and see for yourself why we’re More Than Corn & Tomatoes!
