Events Calendar – June

June 5, 2024 By Nic Murker

June 6th – Peak Season Party!

3:00 pm – 7:00 pm
 

We’re growing for the summer time! ☀️ Thursday, June 6th our market is growing by a full 50% – meaning more of the vendors you love and more small businesses to support!

To celebrate, we’re going to be hosting a very special opening party with balloon animals, face painting, a scavenger hunt for the kiddos, and a golden-ticket event for the adults. Shop from select vendors to find a golden ticket! If you happen to uncover one in your shopping haul, stop by the info booth to collect a homemade baked good from the community 🍰 🍩

We can’t wait to see all of your happy faces at the market. Make sure to stop by this Thursday, June 6th from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm to come see all 65+ vendors we have in store for you. 😆

Cost – FREE
