Outback Hollow
Amy Fairweather
Microgreens, Mushrooms, & Botanical Formulations
Rooted in ritual and grown with intention, Outback Hollow offers a curious bounty for the senses. From nutrient-dense microgreens and hand-harvested mushrooms to botanical tinctures, serums, small-batch soaps, and strange little wonders, everything we bring to market is a love letter to the land—and the magic that grows from it.
Each harvest is small-batch and seasonal, nurtured without shortcuts. Whether you're after a boost of nutrients, a bit of beauty, or a touch of the unexpected, you’ll find something wild and alive at our table.

Lucy's
Jennifer Heatherly
Lucy’s is a family business operated by three generations of Heatherly’s. Our business is named after our head chef and matriarch, Lucy Heatherly. Lucy has been making homemade tamales since she can remember. She has passed her recipes on to her daughter, Jennifer, and her granddaughter, Nevaeh. Together, the three work hand in hand to bring their family’s recipes to our community. Lucy’s tamales are carefully handcrafted over a 24 hour period. Each step is tediously managed to ensure consistency in flavor and quality. The women are so proud of their work and their culture and can’t wait to bring Mexican flavors to friends and neighbors.

Natures Harmony
Melissa Coverdill
Since 2006, I've been on a mission at Nature's Harmony to transform everyday self-care into an extraordinary experience through our handcrafted soaps and lotions. What makes me different? I believe that what you put on your body should be as pure as what you put in it. Every product I create combines time-tested botanical ingredients with modern science, using only premium natural components sourced from sustainable partners. My formulations are free from harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances, and unnecessary fillers that dominate store shelves. My customers don't just buy a product—they invest in their wellbeing and environmental values. They've helped me grow from a small workshop to a respected brand while maintaining my commitment to small-batch quality and ethical production. Whether you're concerned about sensitive skin, environmental impact, or simply want luxurious products that actually work, my collection offers solutions crafted with integrity and care. My 17-year journey has taught me that true quality doesn't need artificial enhancement—nature provides everything we need for healthy, radiant skin. I also create products that help relieve pain almost instantly while using CBD. I have helped people with scoliosis, ACL, bone on bone, migraines, arthritis and many more. Currently a commercial airline pilot is using this as well as Er nurses. My CBD lotion is preferred by people who suffer from neuropathy. Come over and check it out. I give free samples. Encouraging people to try before they buy. NEW TO THIS YEAR Tami's soaps are now being created by Nature's Harmony. Using the same ingredients from the same suppliers, just created in a different location. If you don't see what you are looking for just ask.

Martins Creations
Hannah Martin
My mother wanted to garden ever since I was little and sell her excess vegetables and plants. I was only 13 at the time and it did not seem like fun so I was not interested in it nor wanted to participate until I got a lot older started working and got into the process of growing plants. So, now I am looking to work on my garden all year long and provide fresh produce for those who want it. I started creating all natural bath salts and I want to work on candles next, but for now I am in the process of trial and error.
Fresh produce:
Parsley, basil, tomatoes, carrots, raspberries, strawberries, asparagus, squash, radishes, lavender, mint, lemon grass, spearmint, bee balm(the herb), coriander, bell peppers.
Fresh cut flowers:
Wild flowers that are going to potted and ready be picked from.(Kind of depends on what grows the best)
Plants:
A variety of Succulents that are potted and clippings that can be grown.
Aquatic plants such as Lillie’s and Anubis’s.
Indoor ferns and spider plants in pots.
Also selling delicious lemonade!
