The newest vendor experience is back! Picker’s Paradise is an indoor Local Market Fair made to bring all makers and sellers together under one roof. There hasn't been much to do on Sundays until now! We’re creating a themed experience for our community every 1st Sunday of the month, May - August! Starting with Foodie Day! Of course everyone is welcome, but we’re showcasing all the great local food vendors around!
