RA Steen Annual Craft Spring Craft Sale is Tomorrow

My kids are always very excited about this sale for some reason.  Probably because they have been going since they were babies in slings.  ;)   Well... it is tomorrow, it has free admission, and it is great so you should go.  The weather is a little Springy so maybe going to a Spring craft sale will lift your spirits.  Just imagine that the snow forecasted does not actually appear this weekend and enjoy Spring at RA Steen.  Ha Ha!

Here's the details:

Teulon & Area Farmers Market


Just got this info today.  They have spots available for vendors of handmade items.

Saturday, May 4, 2013, 10 am – 3 pm
Teulon Rockwood Hall, Main St, Teulon, MB

Hosted by the Teulon & Area Farmers Market
“We make it, bake it, or grow it!”

Darcy from The Teulon & Area Farmers Market board describes the sale below.  Contact her for more information.

"The Teulon & Area Farmers Market is excited to be planning our first Springfest Craft Sale, in Teulon, MB and we are hoping you would be one of our vendors!

We host two large events each year, Pumpkinfest in September and our Winterfest Craft Sale in December. This is in addition to our weekly market held Fridays from June to September.  We’ve had huge success with our sales so we have decided to organize another craft sale to celebrate spring. We’ll give our customers a handmade option for their mothers day shopping as Springfest is scheduled for the weekend before Mother’s Day. Since this event is hosted by our local Farmers Market, all product sold are to be strictly handmade; we will not include home sales companies. Our motto is that all our vendors must “make it, bake it, or grow it!”

Springfest will be held indoors in our spacious Teulon Hall. We have 50 eight foot tables available. We will accept applications until April 1, 2013 when we will make our selection. We will limit the number of vendors in all categories (example – jewelry, canning, soaps, baking) at our organizers discretion. We want a great balance of all vendors to satisfy our customers shopping needs and to not have an over saturation of any one product.

We have kept our table rentals to a reasonable cost of $25.  Please mail your application and cheque to Darci Loehmer, Box 195, Balmoral, MB, R0C 0H0.  For more information please contact Darci at 204-467-9064 or email darcid@mts.net. 

The Teulon & Area Farmers Market board is an energetic bunch and we know this will be a great event to attend! We hope you’ll be a part of this excitement!"
