From now until December 17th, we are offering a gift wrapping service with help from Market elf Rhonda!

Bring your gifts to Rhonda and she will wrap them for you. Wrap it as is, or choose a beautiful gift basket or re-usable tote bag. Choose from beautiful embellishments such as chalkboard tags, bows, ribbons and more!  No matter which holiday you celebrate or even a birthday, we have wrapped up!  This is a fundraising initiative for the market, proceeds go to upcoming projects!

Let us take another thing off your plate and make your holiday easier!
