Produce stand sets up shop next to Trinity

Every Tuesday and Thursday this season you’ll find a mini farmer’s market on Oxmoor Road.

Jason and Sheila Davidson set up a produce stand, J&S Produce, with fruit, vegetables and flowers straight from Chilton County in the parking lot next to Trinity United Methodist Church.

By peak season, they will have peaches, watermelon, canteloupe, fresh shelled peas and beans in addition to farm-fresh eggs and their own peach blossom honey. Every item they sell during the height of the summer comes from their family and friends’ farms in Chilton County where they live.

Jason’s dad has sold produce at Bluff Park United Methodist Church for around 20 years, and last year, customer Ann Neptune, who is the business administrator at Trinity, invited him to come to Homewood. Jason said they have had a steady flow of customers each day since coming to their spot on Oxmoor last summer.

“Our business is just about as good as Dad’s after only one year here,” Davidson said. “This is a dream spot for someone like me.”

J&S Produce is open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7 a.m.-4 p.m. For more find them on Facebook.
