Judi and Alan, along with a wonderful advisory board have spent the winter months setting up a new market in Chesterfield County, located in the parking lot of the Chesterfield Towne Center. Opening day is Friday, April 1 from 9 to 1.
We started by selecting products we felt would be of interest to the community and then we began our search for vendors to supply those products. Each vendor has been selected because of the quality of their product. This is a producer/home based only
market. We hope you will support the vendors as you have supported us since we started vending in 2005.
We want this market to be community based and consequently we have set up a Community Circle where the community can learn of topics of interest to them. The range of topics is limitless and the community has responded to our requests with a great deal of excitement. We have already booked The Scottish Rite Childhood Language Center for opening day, followed by a pediatric dentist on April 8th. Many things are in the works, from fingerprinting the children, free blood pressure readings, talented groups from the local schools and more. We are so looking forward to providing this service to the community.
Also in the Community Circle there will be a Book Swap tent....please stop by and take a book. If you have any to donate, thank you for your contribution.
As soon as we can locate some volunteers we will set up an activity tent for children where they can finger paint, draw, make crafts and have story time. Our goal for this is May.
