About
the Market
The market has achieved an extraordinary
degree of success since opening in November
2002. It was organized by a group of
volunteers who share a vision of creating
a strong spirit of community - a place
with a colorful upbeat feeling, where
you'll find a unique selection of products,
and where you shop with vendors that
you know by name. Learn
more about how
we've become the talk of the town!
