More than 50 local vendors have signed on and will be offering their own grown/produced items including produce, flowers, herbs, bedding plants, meat products, baked goods, honey, maple syrup, candies, salsa, jams, jellies, and much more! Come visit with many of the returning favorites as well as some new vendors who are very excited to meet you and share their products. Products and selection vary throughout the season, so I recommend frequent visits!
