Join us on November 22nd, ’tis the Season to prepare for Holiday Merry Making

The Walpole Farmers Market (WFM) is holding a special market on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Customers and Localvores can come shop and stock up on local ingredients for their holiday meal. The market will be on November 22, 2014 from 9 am to 2 pm on the Walpole Town Common.

This market is part of a multi-venue Holiday Fête in Walpole. St. John’s Episcopal Church’s “Christmas on the Green” holiday bazaar, and the First Congregational Church’s “Mistletoe Mart” both run during the same hours, at the respective churches. The Orchard School’s 19th Annual Craft Fair and Cafe will also be held on the same day, from 9:30 am to 4 pm in the Walpole Town Hall, the Walpole Village School is hosting their inaugural Sugar Plum Shop, and the Walpole Historical Society’s gift shop will also be open. All six venues are within an easy walk of each other.

The Fête is a great way to kick off holiday shopping. The WFM vendors will be selling a variety of basic ingredients including meat, bread, cheese, vegetables, and maple products for Thanksgiving dinner, as well as balsam greens to pretty up the home. All six venues will offer baked goods, and gifts to begin preparations for the December holidays. A number of the WFM’s craft vendors will be found inside the Town Hall as part of the Orchard School Fair. A warm drink and lunch will be available at both the Mistletoe Mart and the Orchard School Fair.

The WFM’s December Holidays market will be held December 13, 2014, inside the Walpole Town Hall.
