Crafts such as, soaps, lotions, wool, alpaca fiber products, and more are available every week.

“We are so appreciative of how the community has embraced the market,” Danielle Zimmerman, Market Manager said. “Every year there has been an increase of vendors selling at the market, and customer attendance. It is the community gathering place to be every Friday. It’s wonderful to see out-of-towners enjoying the flavor of our community while our regulars stop by to gather fresh ingredients for a meal or grab dinner and dessert. We hope folks stop by the market to see what our farmers and vendors have ready and waiting.”
