To my amazing community, shoppers, supporters, and friends:
After 10 dedicated years of running the market, I have made the difficult decision to step down as Market Manager.
This was not an easy choice to make. However, between current time constraints, the growing demands of managing and running daily market operations, and the need to prioritize my health and stress levels, I know in my heart that it is the right time for me to step aside.
I want to extend my deepest, most sincere gratitude to every single vendor, shopper, sponsor, and volunteer who has supported me—not just this past year, but over the entire decade we’ve spent together. It has been an absolute privilege working alongside such talented, passionate local small businesses, and I am deeply grateful for the incredible community we built together.
At this time, I am unsure who will be stepping up to lead the market moving forward, but it is my sincere hope that someone will take the reins and carry this event into a bright and successful future.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for 10 unforgettable years of memories, community, and support. Please continue to shop small, support our local vendors, and uplift one another!
With warm regards and gratitude,
Michael Maxwell
