Bring reusable bags
Many makers package goods minimally—bring a sturdy tote for pottery and textiles.
Dress for the weather
Gravel lanes and open fields mean sun, wind, or rain will affect your visit—layers and sun protection help.
Plan for parking
Allow extra time for parking on busy market days and follow farm signage for overflow areas.
Comfortable walking shoes
Sturdy shoes handle gravel lanes and grassy areas comfortably.
Reusable tote or market bag
Makes carrying purchases easier and supports vendors who use minimal packaging.
