Bittersweet

Today is our last Thursday Market of 2021! It’s bittersweet because while Thursdays are ending, we’re excited for the Saturday season to continue to Christmas! This week is a busy one. We have tomorrow and Saturday's Market as well as our annual pumpkin patch! We've been gathering all the spooky gear and treats and can't wait for trick-or-treating at the Market, the Downtown Candy Crawl, and all the costumes! I have mine picked out and ready to go! But first, tomorrow!

To say THANK YOU to our amazing community, we’re giving away $50 in Market gift certificates as well as the LAST one of our Farmers’ Market reusable bags!

The way to win, is to come out to the Farmers’ Market today, October 28th!

We’ve chosen a random number and if you are that customer to enter the Farmers’ Market at Talbot Street, you will receive your prize! (Starting at 4pm)

All you’ve got to do is come and enjoy!

  • Gift certificates will have to be spent OUTDOORS on the day of receiving.♥️

We’ll also be serving apple cider! See you tomorrow!

Pumpkin Patch!

We have SO much happening this Saturday! Many of our vendors are dressing up in Halloween costumes and we’ll be choosing a winner! We’ll let you vote on your favourites as well – just find the jar and write your favourite costume down to submit! The winning vendor will receive a Market basket of Farmers’ Market goods!

We’ll also have trick or treating at the Farmers’ Market – make sure to bring along your kids and grandkids so they can grab some treats (or just grab some for yourself!)

Speaking of treats and fun times….. You’ll find:

🧡 FREE TREAT BAGS for 150 kids dressed in their best costumes!
🧡 The Bubble Queen with two awe-inspiring bubble shows (11am and Noon!)
🧡 Cotton Candy in your favourite spooky colours!
🧡 Candy, chocolate, pumpkin cookies, spiral apples, and MORE? Yes, more!
🧡 A pump-tastic photo opportunity with our spooky skeleton friend
🧡 Find our Walking Pumpkin to get a chocolate! (Yes, a pumpkin will come to life!)
🧡 Pumpkins for sale for $2.00 just in time to carve up
🧡 Contests and prizes! Get your guessing hats on!

We just CANNOT wait! See you all there this Saturday, 10am to 1pm.

The coming season

We’ve been getting some questions about the coming Market season – so let us provide some answers!

We’re hopeful that we can move forward with a normal Market season for the rest of this year and into next. This past Spring we had to cancel our Indoor Market months, but with a little luck and community action, we’ll be able to move forward safely. Here’s what you can expect!

November: Market every Saturday from 8am to 1pm, OUTDOORS

December: Market on the first three Saturdays, the 4th, 11th, and 18th, from 8am to 1pm, OUTDOORS

January: no Market

February and March: Market every Saturday from 9am to 1pm, INDOORS

April: Market on the first two Saturdays, the 2nd and 9th, from 9am to 1pm, INDOORS

EASTER: April 16th, we move outside and will have Market every Saturday until Christmas, 8am to 1pm, OUTDOORS

 

Hopefully that clears up any confusion! Let us know if you have any more questions!
