This week at the market, Mr. B's will add an assortment of special spices that were used in the baked items last week, the market newsletter said.
Oak Creek Rocks is not necessarily a group advocating for rock music, nor is it a group seeking to affirm how great Oak Creek is. Instead, it is a nationwide movement of literal rock painters that has made waves in Oak Creek. The group will be attending Saturday's market with a booth for children to paint rocks, the market newsletter said.
The Oak Creek Farmers Market will be held on Saturday 9 a.m.- 1 p.m. at Drexel Town Square located at 361 Town Square Way in Oak Creek.
