Grocery Getter Produce "Findlay & Shelbyville"

06/14/2026

Some of you may not know, others will never forget... my ties to Shelbyville started 49 years ago when my family relocated here from Hillsboro, Il. after purchasing the Country School Restaurant. If you know, you know! So, I've been serving up pretty good eats here for most of my life!

This garden amazes me! The largest jalapeño peppers I've ever seen, and still growing! Broccoli looks delicious, cabbage ain't no joke either! Picked my first 2 yellow tomatoes last Sunday, and 3 more ready to pluck now! Can't wait to run these tomatoes and bell peppers a Ross my stand so I can share them with you all!!
Sweet corn is doing fine as well!
Speaking of SWEET CORN... I will have sweet corn at my stand next Friday! I can almost taste it already!!
Next Friday, June 19th, 2026 I will be set up in Shelbyville @ 10 a.m. I will have lots of goodies to choose from!
I will do 1 other day this coming week, but will have to update you as soon as I hear when I can get some more watermelons and canteloupes lined out!

You know its gotta be hot n out when the Canteloupe wagon comes to town!!
See ya Friday morning at 10 a.m.!
I also loaded up on those yellow tomatoes and reds too! Washington cherries, white peaches, red plums, red peppers, lots of green beans, cukes and zukes, colossal sweet yellow n onions, little Yukon taters, giant bakers and giant portabellas, or yeah... and of course watermelons!

I have 8 flats or so left over from today, so, if you were wanting some, and unable to get out there, hit me up with a message, and we'll work something out.

I was just informed I can get more than the 100 I had ordered... so if you wanted strawberries... today is the day... final day for fresh southern Illinois strawberries!

06/10/2026

So, there are so many people asking to be put on the list, and I am sorry to say, this final week of strawberries isn't going to be large enough to meet the demand. I was told I could expect 100 flats, and I've responded enough times to be really really close, and hoping I didnt promise any to someone I forgot to add to the list. ( that has happened more than once(. So, if you were fortunate enough to order early, congratulations... if not... We'll, Peach season is coming!!
I will be back in Shelbyville on Friday, with a fresh load of produce... watermelons tomatoes and more.
Cantaloupe and sweet corn are getting close! I should have some sweet corn within a couple weeks.
Oh, those Washington cherries... are kinda pricey right now... but hope to score some for this weekend anyway!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!:
FLAMM'S CALLED and said I will need to pick up my strawberries on Wednesday, instead of Thursday!
So, I will be in Shelbyville with the pre orders Wednesday June, 10th from 2 to 5pm.
If this is a problem for you, please let me know, via pm, so I can make arrangements to let the next person get some.
Its been a difficult season for strawberries this year, and , well, as sorry as I can be over all the scheduling and re-scheduling, I dont have to apologize for the quality and flavor of the strawberries, they have been delicious!
Sorry about having to reschedule pick up, but it was either get them Wednesday, or do without! So, Wednesday it is!!
Thank you for always being so understanding of my delimas!
>>> The list is maxed out! I cannot provide any more than they are allowing me to get! I wish I could!!
