We held our first Spring Market in April 2022 and had approximately 42 vendors and food trucks/trailers attend.  This is a well organized event with lots of traffic.  We had approximately 700 people come through during Spring Market.  We expect the Fall Market may be bigger and better due to our recent expansion and our reputation within the community.  We also plan to increase our advertising for the Fall Market.
