Sleeper, Old-Order Mennonites live in my area, and they sell baking, home made preserves, maple syrup, veggies out of the garden and flowers from the garden........all at road-side stands.

Some farms allow people to go into their back kitchen, where you can buy the food. Fresh eggs as well.

Very often, they are on the honor-system, where you buy the items and leave the money in a container.

I don't remember anything other than the bread. And it was wonderful. We have a lot of Amish who do the same thing around here as far as the produce and other such goods. Many times on the honor system also.

I do remember, also, that a lot of these women only spoke French.

Guess I should have done a search before I asked. Sounds like people in Quebec are starting to use the outdoor bread ovens again.

Several years ago traveling thru Canada we use to stop at the farmer's markets etc to pick up fruit, veggies, etc and I was amazed to see all the ingredients listed on any homemade product. They said it was a province law. Not sure which one. Sure due miss those travels.

I remember the hot bread too. We traveled through Quebec quite often and my Dad would stop for the bread. Sometimes they sold honey and we would have that with the bread. My Aunt always carried wet naps so we could wash our sticky hands and mouths. My Dad would also stop for cheese curds at road side stands that were scooped out of ceramic crocks.

Cherryfizz, I'm so glad someone remembers it! I don't remember honey, but like I said I remember fresh homemade butter that we would slather on. It's just one of those great family memories that we still talk about.
