Supporting local businesses isn’t just a trend—it’s a way to keep communities strong, stories alive, and quality products in your home. At Plum Creek Foods, we’re proud to partner with Village Farm Market in Ephrata, PA, a family-owned gem that’s as rooted in Berks County values as we are.
This month’s Vendor Highlight gives you a closer look at who they are, what they offer, and why their shelves are a perfect home for our hand-twisted soft pretzels.
A Local Legacy Worth Celebrating
Village Farm Market has been serving the Ephrata community and beyond for years, offering a mix of homemade foods, local goods, and market staples that keep customers coming back. What started as a small roadside stand has grown into a full-service market and bakery—with that same homegrown heart still baked into every offering.
Inside, you’ll find daily-prepared foods, from savory soups to fresh sandwiches, all crafted with care. Their bakery is known for pies, cookies, and breads that taste like they came from grandma’s kitchen. They stock pantry essentials, frozen favorites, and a curated selection of local products—including our very own soft pretzels.
What Makes This Partnership Special
Plum Creek’s mission has always been simple: make the best soft pretzels possible, using quality ingredients and traditional methods. We flash-freeze them to preserve that fresh-baked taste and offer a product that families can trust.
Village Farm Market shares that commitment to quality. Their shelves aren’t packed with just any products—they’re filled with items chosen for taste, integrity, and community connection. By carrying Plum Creek pretzels, they’re making it even easier for local families to bring their favorite snack home.

Why Local Matters
Choosing to shop local means more money stays in the community, supporting jobs, families, and traditions. It also means access to food that’s made with real ingredients and real pride—something mass-produced snacks just can’t offer.
Our pretzels are proudly made in Berks County, hand-twisted and baked by people who care about the craft. When you buy them at Village Farm Market, you’re supporting not one, but two local businesses that believe in the power of food to bring people together.
