Featured Vendor: Kappers Big Red Barn

This week's featured vendor is Jeanette Kappers of Kappers Big Red Barn. It is a family business that is owned and operated by Bob and Jeanette Kappers with the help of their three sons in Chatfield, MN.
Kappers' has a fully licensed Grade A bottling plant right on their farm. They only use milk made from their cows. The cows receive no BST and graze as much as the season permits.
Kappers' booth at the market contains cheese curds, ice cream, different varieties of milk in glass bottles and eggs. As well as farm fresh quality and good company.
You can watch the video of the full interview with Jeanette here.
Jeanette believes people are drawn to farmer's markets because the food is farm fresh and homegrown. You also meet a lot of interesting farmers and learn where your produce is from.
Jeanette and Bob's farm is always open for visits. The farm store is self-serve and open from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m. every day.
