For the past 17 years, Barbara Buffington has been a staple at the Friday Market at Manson’s Hall, delighting the community with her homemade baked goods. Each week, her table is filled with fresh jams made from fruit she lovingly grows herself (everything except the blueberries!), alongside oatmeal cookies, rosemary focaccia, whole wheat bread, chocolate brownie squares, raisin scones, and seasonal pies.

Barbara’s baking is rooted in care and tradition, with recipes that highlight simple, wholesome ingredients and the flavors of the season. Her pies, especially, are a true taste of Cortes — changing with the fruit available throughout the year.

Come visit Barbara’s table and experience the warmth, flavor, and consistency she’s brought to the market for nearly two decades. 🥖🥧🍓
