We're Celebrating 15 Years of Night Markets!

/

It’s official: we’ve been producing night markets in the Stardust parking lot for 15 years! That’s 15 years of working with an incredible variety of farmers, food entrepreneurs, artists, fishmongers, ranchers, makers, bakers, neighbors and friends. In that time, we’ve gotten to know a lot more about our community, and about what it takes to build and grow a local business. We’ve watched as the amazing businesses we work with have grown, transformed, and even moved on to their own brick and mortar spaces. We’ve been through a global pandemic, natural disasters, a change in climate zones for growing, and countless other challenges. We’re looking forward to celebrating this landmark the way we know best; with delicious food and a community gathering.

Along with our always-awesome lineup of wonderful vendors, we have some special menus, fun activities and special treats lined up for the celebration.

  • Rain or Shine Roselle Seltzer Release: Our lovely friends and neighbors at Redlight Redlight have produced a wonderful hard seltzer to mark this occasion. With the apropos moniker, Rain or Shine, it’s a delicious lemonade seltzer finished with roselle from Everoak Farm. It will be available for your enjoyment at Stardust, and of course at Redlight Redlight itself.
