About the Market
Background
The Danbury Winter Market was initiated by the Blazing Star Grange to promote local buying and sustainable farming practices. It operates from November through May, providing a platform for vendors to sell their goods directly to the community.
Practices
All items sold at the market must be made, grown, or produced by the vendors themselves, ensuring a direct connection between producers and consumers. The emphasis on local sourcing supports sustainable farming and strengthens the local economy.
The Rest
The market is held on the first Saturday of each month, with a backup date in case of a blizzard. The Blazing Star Grange also serves hot breakfast and lunch at the Blazing Star Bistro during market hours. The market features over 20 vendors in November and December, offering a variety of crafts, meats, baked goods, honey, jams, preserves, mustards, root crops, and chocolates. From January to May, the market focuses more on agricultural and specialty food vendors.
