We are excited to be back at the market!
Florence and George are excited to be at the first Artisan Saturday, we know you will find fresh veggies, flowers and wonderful gift ideas for Mom. Check out some of our offerings...the classic tissue holder for her purse or a super cute clutch, better yet add her favorite wine to an insulated wine carrier.

We will have a huge selection of scents at the market! We know Mom's Love candles! We'll have too many to list so just come by and sniff!
Side Stitch by Ginny returns to the market just in time for Mothers Day. These new clutches make the perfect gift! Pretty on the inside and outside, they are just the right size for phone, keys, money and lipstick! There will also be a beautiful selection of handmade aprons, yoga mat bags, hairbands and home decor. See you at the market!

Hello Market Shoppers!

It looks like we will have rain tomorrow but thank goodness for our bridge!  Our farmers, artisans and artists will be here with great food AND great gifts!  While you shop you can listen to Phoenixville's own Hytha Family.  It is a performance not to miss!

Last week we unveiled our new MARKET BAGS.  Made of recycled cotton and printed on both sides, using them is a great way to support the market and let others know we are here every Saturday. You can buy them at the market table at $12 for one or two for $20.  Each month we will be raffling off one of the market bags filled with contributions from our great farmers and artisans.  You can enter every week at the market table and we will draw the winner on the last Saturday of each month.

Tomorrow morning we hope you will put on your rain boots, grab and umbrella and come on down to see us!  Remember, it is DRY under the bridge!

SEE YOU AT THE MARKET!!
