Due to the heavy rainfall and wind gusts predicted for the weekend, Cobblestone will NOT operate with "business as usual" this Saturday BUT will offer a Pre-Order, Pick-Up Drive-Thru Saturday from 8:30-11:00am for customers to collect their pre-orders. Pre-order with individual vendors via their instructions to ensure your order is ready for drive-thru pick-up Saturday. Pay special attention to order deadlines! NOTE: A handful of our dedicated vendors will be onsite "tailgating" with their product offerings in case you miss a deadline or to grab that last minute addition. Check social media for the most up-to-date information as we literally weather the storm.
Read MoreThis Saturday come out and celebrate one of our favorite seasons with activities for the kiddos, vendor demos across Market and a Food Demo featuring Chef Brian Gebhard! And of course, grab your own PEPPERS for sautéing, grilling, stewing or roasting. Roasting peppers is one of those kitchen skills that seems daunting until you've done it a couple of times - it takes hardly any practice before it becomes second nature. Jarred or frozen peppers are perfectly fine (and will definitely be your friend in a winter pinch) but nothing matches freshly roasted sweet peppers in a bright salad or smoky & spicy roasted Hatch chiles in a batch of guacamole or roasted Poblanos in homemade chili -- mmm, mmm, good!

Psst, the perfect weather to justify purchasing a long-sleeve CFM tee OR stainless steel travel mug at the Info Booth!
