We hope you’ll join us for this very special market event. Come visit us at the Farm for a visit with the one and only, Santa Claus himself! We will be available to take some nice photos of each little one + the big guy, which we will be sending out to you via email.

This will also be our 2nd week of collecting items for the Prudence Crandall Center. The holiday season is full of magic and wonder for our children, and holds ample opportunities for local shopping and gift giving. However, the true gift of the season is a PEACEFUL home and HOPE for the future. There are so many families in need of this.

In addition to having plenty of holiday shopping, we hope to collect your donations of the following items that families in our neighborhoods are in need of :

• children + adult’s clothing, gift cards, packaged toiletries, and non-perishable food items

The Prudence Crandall Center, right here in Connecticut, provides safety and shelter to 150 adults and children in crisis. They provide comfortable homes and stability for survivors and their families. They provide caring counseling and advocacy for 3,000 victims annually. And they offer help and guidance, day or night, for all who are in need. They educate our youth to break cycles of violence. And they really do so much more.

Please join us in supporting their needs, helping these Connecticut families, and remembering that the Holidays are for Giving, as well as receiving. Please clean out your closets and think of this incredible organization and the work that it does for so many. We will have a collection area on the farm dedicated to receiving during our December 8th + 15th market events.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
