Where Did That Vegetable Stand Guy Go?

Dear Gallatin neighbors, and friends passin' through, have you been wondering what happened to that fella with the roadside stand of fresh veggies? You know, the one with all the farm fresh fruits and veggies just bursting with color on the side of the road "where the old Walmart.......and Goody's used to be"? Well, let me tell you, he's still there and he didn't go far. Just turn on into that same parking lot and he is right next door to Burke's outlet. (that replaced Goody's) You know, Tractor Supply is on one side, he's on the other.
(typical country directions, yes?)

Don' Farm Fresh Produce at 694 Nashville Pike in Gallatin TN is still bursting with all those wonderful and flavorful fruits and veggies....and then some. This fella is a busy man these days supplying fresh produce to local places such as The Whippoorwill and Grecians on the Square, Lenny's Sub Shop, American Legion, Top Hog BBQ on Blythe and the Elk's Club. 


Just look at these yummy squash, tomatoes, peaches and strawberries and tell me your mouth is not watering.


Don has plenty of room in his store to provide you with all your hearts desire of farm fresh goodness such as tomatoes, cabbage, turnips, potatoes of all kinds, peppers, cucumbers, squash, beans, onions, apples, grapefruits, oranges, lemons, limes, strawberries and more. You can even find some painted gourds and such from local crafters.


One of Don's biggest sellers right now is the local honey. Jarred straight from the hive, it's about as fresh as you can get. If you purchase honey today, it may very well have been collected and jarred only a few hours before purchase. Fresh, raw, PURE & LOCAL honey works absolute wonders for those with allergies. Take a teaspoon in the morning and a teaspoon at night and within 7 days you just might be cured of your allergy woes. I bought some. Let me tell you, not only does it work, it is absolutely delicious.  
Also available are home made jams and jellies, apple butter, apple cider vinegar, marinated asparagus, and pepper sauces.


In the fridge you will find eggs, (I checked these out and they are looooovely) hand rolled butter, country ham and the freshest of milk straight from a farm in Kentucky. And look! They even have chocolate cows! Ok no not really but where else will you find farm fresh CHOCOLATE milk made with real chocolate?


You can also get some hot boiled peanuts.
 I have never tried these but I hear they are "all the rave".

Fresh baked bread. Hurry though, this stuff goes quick. 

You can also browse an assortment of organic teas and holistic skin care products from
Anya's European Choice Holistic Health & Beauty.

On your way out be sure to pick up some kitchen cutlery and supplies.


So be sure to give Don Davis a visit and pick up some fresh produce.

  1. Oh yes...very good stuff. I've had the bread, eggs (farm fresh really do taste different!), some veggies, and the peaches when they are in season are divine!
    Great review! :)
