🌱 Sne Peek at This Saturday’s Antonito Farmers & Community Market 🌱

Here are a few of the vendors currently confirmed for the May 16th market so far!

🛍 Confirmed vendors include:
• Bryan Trujillo crafts, pipes & knives
• Plant starts & swap meet treasures
• Crafts, books, jams & sewn items
• KLs Oddz & Endz shirts and more
• Yard sale treasures
• Dream catchers and Crafts
•G&B Farm Stands, baked goods and more

I also have several other vendors who are very likely coming, Ijust haven’t gotten final confirmation from everyone yet. This year we already have around 30 vendors interested that will likely rotate in and out depending on the week, weather, harvest season, and availability. I’m really excited to see how this grows throughout the summer 🌿

One thing to note, fresh local produce will probably not really start showing up consistently until around July as gardens and farms get going here in the Valley.

If I missed anybody, I’m really sorry 😅 I’ve been trying to keep notes as people message me, stop me in town, or comment online. If you ARE coming, please shoot me a message or leave a comment so I can make sure you’re included in the next vendor spotlight post.

📍 1911 Steam Train Hotel, Antonito
📅 Every Saturday weather permitting
⏰ 9am–3pm
🛠 Vendor setup starts at 8am

Vendors are still welcome, if your intreated reach out to Tegan Welsch-Rainek. Follow the page for updates throughout the season.

Did you know Colorado is known as the Centennial State?

Colorado is the 38th state. It got its nickname because it was admitted to the United States on August 1, 1876, 100 years after the Declaration of Independence was signed.

That means this year as America celebrates 250 years as a nation, Colorado is celebrating 150 years of statehood.

The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad is joining the fun with three days of special trains in an event called the “Centennial State Limited.” During the even the Friends will be available to share how you can get involved with railroad preservation.
