About the Market

Background

The concept of the St. Marys Community Market draws inspiration from the first public markets established in Europe during the early 18th century, where open-air markets on riverbanks sold a variety of local goods. The market aims to attract both local residents and visitors to the downtown area, showcasing the historical district and supporting local merchants and restaurants.

Practices

The market emphasizes the sale of locally sourced and handmade products, fostering a connection between producers and consumers. Vendors offer fresh produce, seafood, baked goods, handmade crafts, and other locally made items, promoting a sense of community and sustainability.

The Rest

Open every Saturday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM at 206 Osborne Street, the market provides a vibrant gathering place reminiscent of European open-air markets. Visitors can enjoy a variety of goods including fresh seafood, natural dog biscuits, local honey, handmade jewelry, homemade preserves, woodwork crafts, and more. For vendor applications or further information, contact the Downtown Development Director, Alyce Thornhill, or visit the market's website.
