December Market

Wow! What an exciting market! We had Frosty cloggers who danced, sang, and had a snowball fight. Santa showed up. We had vendors all around and down the center of the Extension Building. It was hopping!

A big thanks to everyone who helped out, to all our vendors and to all our customers.
See you in January.

December Winter Market

I am getting more and more emails every day from vendors who plan to be at the December 17 Winter Market! This is your big chance to get those one-of-a-kind, gifts straight from Southeastern South Dakota, gifts that you can’t find anywhere else. What do you buy the person who has everything – something they can’t get elsewhere!

• Reddog Brand Biscuits will be there with pet foods.
• Hanisch Farms will come with pasture-raised meats – think Christmas dinner!
• Rukus Ridge will have Hand made wood puzzles and kitchen items, Hand made Sterling Silver & Bead jewelry, Hand made Gourd Art & Birdhouses. They will also have popcorn that they grew right here on their farm.
• We have several bakers – amazing breads from one, pies, cakes, pastries, cookies from another.
• Jams and jellies to go along with those breads and pastries
• Dakota Earth will bring samples of pasta with one or two of their recipes. They will also bring their signature flavors, along with Toasted Garlic Herb, Meditterranean Olive, and Monnezagglia [it has to be seen to be appreciated].  They’ll also have teas, breakfast blends, and perhaps some cookies.
• Arlyce Douglas will return with crafts, baby blankets, towels, ornaments, and more.
• There will be teas – and samples – dried herbs, salsas, jellies, and other preserved foods
• For stocking stuffers, buy some VAFM gift certificates (or donate them to the food pantry)

Winter markets are the third Saturday of each month – from 10-1 at the Clay County Extension Building, 515 High St.
