We currently have a young farmer living on our property, using organic practices, who can provide you with seasonal produce and herbal brews. You can see his weekly offerings at: www.stuartwayman.com. Check out his site to see what's available during your stay. Also, we order from an online fresh organic & certified naturally grown market each week. If you would like to place an order prior to your stay, the cutoff is Tuesday at 8pm and the orders are ready Thursdays at 3pm at a local farm. Go to www.leaffoodhub.com. There are many wonderful farms & farmer's markets in the area.
Cobden has several very good places to eat including: Iron Whisk for breakfast or lunch Wed-Sun, Downtown Abbey for lunch or dinner Wed - Sun, Taqueria Pequena for lunch/dinner. The Mexican Grocery in Cobden has some food supplies, but the nearest grocery is in Anna at the Kroger. There are also local farmer's markets and a Neighborhood Coop in Carbondale. The Old Feedstore in Cobden hosts a Farmer's Market twice a month on Sundays(closed for winter) where you can also get a tasty lunch. Once a month there is a delicious Fish Fry Friday at the Catholic church in Cobden. Other restaurants/caterers, special dinners & music events with food are plentiful in the Southernmost Illinois area. A binder offers suggestions and directions. You can also go on Facebook and check out the Southern Illinois Eats page - almost 20,000 members on there and lots of good reviews and referrals for good food.
