Welcome to our 2nd last market of the 2016 season.  Sunny skies are finally going to be with us after a few drizzly markets.  The Board of the Market would like to take this time to thank Diane Guilbault for her work as Chair of the Board over the past few years.  Diane (the face of La Vendeenne at many markets) has retired and is moving back to Ontario to enjoy her retirement.  We wish her well in all her future endeavors!

I think we caught her waking up with her morning coffee in this photo.  You will be missed Diane!

Fall is officially here and we are reaping the bounty of our summer gardens with fresh veggies and berries, jams and jellies, pickles and more.  Many of our vendors have some sort of fresh produce along with their regular products.

Our music this week will be provided by Cove FM – 88.7 on your dial, our local radio station, and we would also like to thank them for advertising our Market this season.

We have a wide selection of artisan products this week with the following vendors:

Nancy’s Seaweed Soaps;  Joey Carter’s Jewelry;  Healing Gardens floral arrangements, Michele Rivard’s whimsical windchimes; Nancy Humby with Ginger’s ceramics; and more …
