2014 Vendors
A Handmade Spring Market in Teulon
On April 30, 2016, the Teulon Farmers Market held its fourth annual Springfest Craft Sale in Teulon, MB. The date was a deliberate choice: the weekend before Mother’s Day, so that customers could shop for the moms in their lives. Because the sale was hosted by a local farmers market, every product on the tables had to be handmade — home sales companies were not part of the lineup, and each vendor either made or baked what they offered.

Why the Spring Date Mattered
Choosing the weekend ahead of Mother’s Day gave shoppers a reason to browse slowly and compare the work of ten different makers by hand. The market kept the roster to people who craft or bake themselves, so a visitor could talk to the person who carved the tree picture or filled the pie.
