Tips & Advice
- Check the specific December date and hours before setting out; holiday markets run on selected Saturdays and Sundays rather than every weekend.
- Use the information tent for EBT/SNAP or Healthy Bucks processing, which the market lists as available there.
- Bring a reusable shopping bag for produce, pantry goods, and artisan purchases, so you can carry finds as you browse.
- Allow time to browse food and craft stalls and listen to live entertainment; the market brings these offerings together at Marion Square.
- Wear comfortable shoes for walking around Marion Square while browsing produce and crafts at this outdoor market.
Special Events & Promotions
- Additional holiday-season markets are scheduled December 5, 6, 12, 13, and 19, from 9 AM to 3 PM.
