Tips & Advice

  • Buy a Preview Party ticket if you'd like champagne, nibbles and a chance to shop the Market on the Thursday evening before the main days.
  • Make time for the famous cookie walk, which runs on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, alongside the jams, preserves and soups to go.
  • Head to the boutique gifts section for the special pieces set aside as too good for the tag sale.
  • Donate only clean, working, like-new items to the tag sale, because clothing, books, records, CDs, movies and electronics can't be accepted this year.
  • Sign up to make butternut squash soup or chili for the Market, because volunteers are needed and recipes and packaging containers are provided.
