A sweet little farmstand that is barely a one minute drive. Will they have everything? No. But do you need a quick hunk of cheese or milk or some bread in a rush? Maybe missing olives or want crackers? Need a random basic produce item like spinach or just one apple? Or a sudden hankering for a pint of ice cream? They stay open late Friday and Saturday (that's just 8pm around these parts) for out of towners to drop in for last minute items.
