One Last Market, One Spooktacular Saturday!
Celebrating 20 weeks of local food, community, and one final fall morning by the lake!
Here we are! It's hard to believe, but we've officially arrived at the final Saturday of our 20-week Wakefield Farmers Market season!
What a wonderful season it's been, and we couldn't be more excited to wrap things up on Halloween! With the leaves showing off their beautiful fall colors, crisp autumn air, and sunshine in the forecast, it's shaping up to be a picture-perfect New England fall morning.
And since it's Halloween, we're inviting all our little marketgoers to come dressed in their favorite costumes, and don't forget your four-legged friends in their spookiest getups!
Think of it as a little farmers market trick-or-treating, except everything you put in your market tote is a delicious, locally grown or handmade treat!
Just remember to bundle up! Even with the sunshine, it's always a little cooler by the lake.
A Little Music, Something Warm & Plenty of Fall Fun!
We're thrilled to welcome Betty's Bounce to our music tent for our final market! Their lively gypsy jazz will be the perfect soundtrack for a crisp autumn morning.
Bring a blanket, grab a warm chai from Fork on a Road or a hot chocolate from Bagels N Brew, and settle in for some wonderful live music while enjoying the beautiful fall scenery.
A heartfelt thank you to The Savings Bank for sponsoring our live music program throughout the season and helping us bring local music to the market each week!
A Few Things to Look Out for This Saturday!
Before we say goodbye to our outdoor market season, there are a few vendors you'll definitely want to visit!
Sarah's Originals: Looking to add a little seasonal charm to your home? Stop by for beautiful fall and festive table décor, or place a custom order to pick up at our Thanksgiving Holiday Market!
Ackermann's Maple Farm: Stock up on locally produced maple syrup for your holiday table, morning pancakes, and fall baking! They won't be attending our November Thanksgiving Holiday Market, but they'll be back for our December market.
Savanti Healing: With cold season upon us, it's a wonderful time to stock up on herbal teas. Be sure to check out their Breathe Easy and Immunatea blends, two highly recommended favorites for cozying up during the cooler months!
And of course, don't forget to visit your favorite farmers, bakers, food makers, and artisans for one last outdoor market shopping trip of the season!
Twenty Weeks of Community. Thank You!
As we close out another season, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude.
To our incredible vendors who show up week after week, rain or shine, bringing their hard work, passion, and wonderful products to our community: thank you.
To our dedicated volunteers, staff, and board members who work tirelessly behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly: we couldn't do this without you.
To the Town of Wakefield, our sponsors, community partners, and everyone who has supported the market throughout the season: thank you for believing in the importance of local food and small businesses.
And to our customers, whether you've visited us every Saturday or stopped by for the first time this year, thank you for choosing to shop local and supporting the people who grow, make, and create right here in our community.
A farmers market is so much more than a place to shop. It's a place where neighbors become friends, small businesses grow, and community comes together.
We're incredibly grateful to be part of it.
Let's Go Out With a Bang!
Join us for one final outdoor market this Saturday, October 31, from 9 AM–1 PM at Hall Park on Lake Quannapowitt.
Wear your costumes, bring your market totes, grab something warm, and help us celebrate the end of another incredible season!
From all of us at the Wakefield Farmers Market, thank you for 20 wonderful weeks.
Happy Halloween, and we'll see you Saturday!
