Every Saturday morning, the Simmons family sets up shop at the corner of Washington and Jackson streets, in one of the final stops along the strip of vendors booths at the Vicksburg Farmers Market.
In front of their E&L Family Farms banner sits a cornucopia of fresh vegetables grown in their garden in Bovina.
You just can’t beat it,” said Lurline Simmons, the matriarch of the family.
Lurline Simmons said the idea to teach her children how to work the land has always been a goal.
“When we moved out to our property, Erick and I always wanted a big garden,” Lurline said.
