We also have lots of unique crafts for sale by the artists who have made them including, jewelry, wooden bowls, candles, yarn, and hand painted silk scarves.  You can give someone a unique gift while supporting our great LOCAL economy!


 

New this year is a warming hut where you can step inside to take the chill off as you stroll through the Market.  We will have gift certificates for the Market available at the Market table in front of the warming hut.  We also have gift certificates for massage from Ocean Earth Wind Fire, and for The Cobb Studio, where market artist Cara Graver makes her wares and teaches pottery classes.
