We started out the 2011 summer season<\/span><\/strong> by setting up a booth at the<\/strong><\/span> Cranbrook Farmers Market<\/a>, which is held in downtown Cranbrook every Saturday morning throughout June-September.\u00a0 We met so many amazing people, and other vendors, that when the possibility of getting to take part in a Winter Market, we jumped at the chance!\u00a0<\/p>\n

My first thought was, “No tent to set up!\u00a0 Yay!”<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The winter market is held during the last weekend in November, and coincides with the Santa Claus parade.<\/strong> \u00a0This year, it was a two day affair, and despite the FREEZING<\/strong> cold temperature INSIDE<\/strong> (not to mention outside!) the old SuperValu building that the Market rents out in downtown Cranbrook, people came to see it by the thousands! \u00a0The Friday<\/strong> evening market was packed with excited kids, eager to see the big man in red waving to them at the end of the parade, and the Saturday<\/strong> had people who had scoped things out the night before and were coming back to make their purchases.\u00a0 It was a great time for everyone I think.\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
We, as market vendors would like to thank<\/strong> everyone who came out and made it such a success and we are already looking forward to next year.\u00a0<\/div>\n

Paul, while I was manning our cupcake booth<\/strong>, managed to make his way around to many of the other vendors. \u00a0I feel like I got to see a bit of the market through the lens of his camera. \u00a0After seeing these pictures, I’m almost glad that I was stuck behind the table as I surely would have put a serious dent in my wallet<\/strong>! \u00a0<\/p>\n
