Great crowd at the Market today.  I really believe that this place is a great asset to the community.

Am I crazy? Or would it be awsome to have an on site fish farm?

It's about as local as things can get.  We don't grow everything in this particular region.

Went out to the market Saturday. Very big crowd and lots to see. Juniors Seafood has a nice selection of fresh, local seafood, not frozen.

Was there yesterday, it was packed! The blow-up houses were on the outside, nice music inside, great crowd. Going back today for pumpkins. Paid less than 20 bucks for items that would have run 50 bucks in the grocery store.
And, that $115 will save Jacksonville from financial ruin. - Mayor John Peyton
