UPCOMING EVENTS:
Summer Pie Sale – July 5th:
Take home a delicious homemade pie baked fresh by our vendors! We expect to have plenty of fruit pies, as well as a few savory choices as well. Come and pick up a pie and help support the market!
Do you love to bake? Do you wish you could do something special to support the market? If so, we have an idea – you can donate a home-baked pie to our Summer Pie Sale!
Our vendors simply cannot bake enough pies to satisfy the number of customers that would like to have one (or two, or more!) So, if you feel inclined, you can help support the market and add to the joy of the day by dropping off a (securely wrapped and labeled) pie to the market on the morning of July 5th. All proceeds of the pie sale go directly to support the market and our amazing farmers and craftspeople!
