The market runs rain or shine from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. every Sunday except Memorial Day Weekend until October 31. Interested in being a vendor? Contact Laura at sweethollowsfarm@gmail.com
If you have any questions please call 926-5919. Please take a look at the pictures below. As you can see it is a large space- perfect to handle a large market. The first two pictures are where the vendors will be. The stands will be set up in a horseshoe arrangement on the edges of the parking lot. On the other side of the building is another large parking lot for convenient customer and vendor parking. Stay tuned for a to-scale map drawing of vendor spaces!

The market will open on May 9, 2010, the same weekend as Hodgman's Frozen Custard, directly across the street.
