Wasatch Community Gardens’ Love Local Winter Market is returning this year on December 6th from 12-6pm! Held at Wasatch Community Gardens Campus (629 E 800 S, SLC), this outdoor market will be a celebration of local food, local makers, and the warmth of community.
Sip on hot tea and mulled wine while you shop from 30+ small, local businesses with a focus on food, gardening, nature, and locally sourced materials.
We are currently seeking vendors and artisans for the market! If you create art, products, or food, apply now at the link below! Applications are due by Friday, October 24th, at 5pm.
Admission is $5 at the gate, children 5-and-under are free! This helps us cover the cost of heat lamps to keep this outdoor event cozy, means we can keep our vendor fees low - making this market accessible to smaller and up-and-coming vendors, and helps support our community programming and mission to empower people to grow and eat healthy, organic, local food.
Whether as a shopper or a vendor, we hope you’ll join us under the twinkly lights to support small, local businesses and celebrate community.
