Channahon, Illinois Has A New Farm Stand!

One of the best things about summer is all the fresh produce that is abundantly available. This summer, Channahon, IL is lucky to have Kevin McDonald's Rainbow Harvest Farm stand.

The farm stand is located in the parking lot of Channon Acres Plaza (next to Lone Star) and operates daily.

This is all locally grown, fresh, healthy, organic produce. I picked up a "yellow" watermelon the other day that was out of this world.

Stop by and check it out for yourself and see the nice selection of fresh fruits and vegetables. The stand is open daily (weather permitting) from about 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
