Over 1000 volunteer hours go into making this market happen each season.
The goal for this market is for it to be sustainable. This means it must eventually be able to support a paid market manager and assistant.  As we grow our number of vendors our total fees collected will increase and the rest of the expenses will need to be covered by grants, sponsorships, and donations.

Donated items are also appreciated, click here for information.
