This isn't just a market; it's a mission-driven event recently honored as the 2025 Sussex County Non-Profit Organization of the Year.

Since 2003, the market has proudly donated over $770,000 back into the community. By attending, you become part of this incredible spirit of giving. Come explore the charming stalls, find unique gifts, and enjoy the festive atmosphere, all while making a tangible difference for your neighbors.
