It's February, and this week marks 12 years of operating our little night market in front of Stardust Video & Coffee.  Over the years we've met and worked with an inspiring community of local farmers, makers, artisans, ranchers, fishmongers, bakers, crafters, brewers, writers, performers and so much more.  It's been an honor to host our neighbors and community each week, connecting over local food. We're so proud and grateful to have been a part of this community for so long, and we're looking forward to continuing to work with awesome local producers and our friends and neighbors! 

Grab a sweater and help us celebrate by continuing to support local entrepreneurs.  As always, there'll be plenty of staples, from fresh-picked produce and handmade cheese, to soaps and kombucha.  CM Bakari is doing their Pizza Pop-up tonight, and there'll be other delicious belly-warming options from The Bearded Vegan and Ceylon Hut.  And Thrown by Hand will be on site for a Pop-up appearance, with gorgeous functional pottery that make great gifts for yourself or a loved one.  

As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths.  We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask.  Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.  

We hope to see you at the market. 

With Gratitude,

Gabby Lothrop 
Market Director
