One of the things that I love best about being a vendor at the Campbellford Farmers’ Market is the relationships that I’ve developed with my fellow vendors. Did you know that some of our vendors are not only friends but family?
Sandra of Russett Farms and Ashley of A2 Baking Creations are the first pair of vendors that come to mind. Ashley has been coming to market since she was a girl to help her mom Sandra sell beef and apples from the Russett family farm and orchard. Now, you’ll find Ashley set up in the stall beside her mom selling her home baked pies, tarts, muffins, and cookies. The best bit, is that Ashley uses apples from the Russett orchard in her baking! When Ashley says “homemade” she really means it!
Deb and Teah Mattingly are another mother/daughter pair that operate different businesses at the market. Deb is the owner and operator of Havencroft Hounds. She sells organic dog treats (homemade biscuits and dehydrated chicken feet) as well as her colourful dog collars, catnip mats and bags. Deb’s daughter Teah, can be found across the way, as part of The Philosopher’s Scone crew. Teah unleashes her culinary arts training, in *out of this world* perserves, jams, jellies, relishes, and mustards. She uses local ingredients when possible, and has different creations for sale each week. Deb and Teah are nearing the end of two seasons as vendors with us. What fun energy, smiles, and lots of laughs they bring to market each week!
