The Pictou County Weekend Market closes today for the 2011 season. It has been a very different summer this season. WE have had some sickness in the Market this summer with some of our vendors. "Where the Heart Goes" hasn't been well since early July. Yesterday Bonnie walked into the Market and we all knew that she "WAS BACK." Awesome Miss Bonnie, good job. The Market would not be the same without you.
We had some new and wonderful vendors and most of them are staying for 2012. Our large consignment booth is being taken over by one of our regular vendors for next season. Myrna and Ivan Walsh have done an awesome job on the consignment area. They have been with the market for a number of years as a vendor (the Dabbling Duo) and now the owners of the consignment booth. They have decided to take a long and well deserved rest. They do a large number of other shows throughout the Maritime Provinces starting in early October. The consignment booth will we taken over and run by Jean Nicol. Jean has been with the market over 2 years and she also thinks it is time for a change. Jean is very excited about her new venture and has a great many new ideas to put into place for the upcoming season.
We already have some surprises up our sleeves for next season . Some vendors are increasing the size of their space and some are moving to different locations. St. Famille Wines had a great season and are also looking forward to next summer. The Salsa man will be back from Ottawa as well. LuLu's sweets are returning along with Gail McNutt, the quilt lady and Laurie and Nonie Gallant ( scroll work). Mostly all your favorite vendors are still with us and at this time we all wish you a great winter and remember we open June 16, 2012 at 10 am. See you at The Market.....
