Schmickle Pickles and Sol Soils - New Vendors at the 2022 Mill City Farmers Market
As usual, our shopping basket from the May 21 Mill City Farmers Market is packed! New items include ready to bake buttermilk biscuits from Vikings and Goddesses Pie Company, Schmickles pickles, a potted cactus from Sol Soils and smoked country style sausages from Sweet Lou's.
Schmickles! Like so many tasty treats we enjoy today, this product came to be when friends told Nick and Felecia Schmidt their homemade pickles were so good they should be selling them. Those encouraging buddies even helped the Schmidts come up with a company name, which is a combination of their last name and pickles. Schmickles are produced in small batches using ingredients from local farmers markets.
Travis Thein and John Porter of Sol Soils offer a variety of high-quality soils, soil components and soil toppers designed for potted cacti, succulents and houseplants. For those of us who are not inclined to come up with our own creations, they had an array of potted cacti and succulents ready to take home.
I took this little guy home. Sol Soils provides care instructions with your purchase to eliminate any guesswork.
