I photographed Main Street Market in Lilburn for the Lilburn Patch newspaper on Friday, March 23, 2012. The market was opened in February of this year by Bruce Hosch, a 32 year local to the city. Hosch, who has years of agricultural experience, decided to come out of retirement after a recent trip to a local farmers market when he couldn’t find the produce he wanted. With the help of his wife Maria, Bruce is making a go of the market which carries a variety of out of the ordinary products including an Amish line of produce and fresh boiled peanuts that he makes in-house.
