Cajun Growers

Tomayto. Tomahto. However you prefer to say it, Cajun Growers knows what you’re talking about. Long-time CCFM vendors, Tad and Lillie Ledet, make their return to the Tuesday market this week. In tow, they’ll have a selection of vine-ripened tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, and crisp cukes all the way from Cutoff, LA. Dedicated Saints fans, their tent is hard to miss. Just look for the ol’ black and gold! Don’t dilly-dally though, they sell out quickly!
