Live Ice Sculpting, Honey Talk, Natural Laundry Soap & Sparkoffee Samples

Come to the marketplace this Saturday!

Since November 2012, The Marketplace at Simpson Spring
 is held every Saturday rain or shine from 10:00am to 2:00pm. Our market is diverse and includes local farms and food producers as well as artisans, crafters and small businesses from our area.

We love nature. All facets of it.


We love natural things... Things that don't have a lot of ingredients, and only a few, naturally occurring chemicals. Like spring water (of course!)
This week at the Marketplace, you'll see a variety of natural products and a few special highlights, naturally!  We have a presentation on Honey from around the world, Renée will have LOTS of natural laundry detergent available for you to try or buy - it is good for your allergies, and will clean your clothes! 
We'll also have a Eyes4Ice, ice sculptor, carving beautiful things out of this cold, frozen winter!

Once again, if you have an idea for an event you'd like to see at the marketplace - please tells us. Submit your ideas and proposals to simpsonmarketspecials@gmail.com

~See you at the Marketplace
