12.01.2022 It is with the most heaviest of hearts that we need to let you know that our market scheduled for this Saturday is cancelled. We just cant risk exposing our stallholders and market patrons to the unhealthy environment at Riverside Park right now, that and we know many of our stallholders have lost so much as a result of these floods. Our heart and our prayers go out to our market community - stallholders and patrons alike who have suffered so much damage and loss. Lets support each other, and help out where we can. Please take care everyone, and we will look forward to an amazing market in May!
