Siteplan for SAT NOV 10
We’ve invited 20 Artists and Crafters to move into the spaces vacated by early-departing farms. Things will be hectic during setup. (I’ll keep my sense of humor if you do!)
Only 2 to go! Let’s sell some Jersey Fresh!
Collingswood Foods SAT NOV 10
SCRUMPTIOUSNESS FROM THE CONSTELLATION COLLECTIVE
REVELATION CAFÉ! Local food heroes Revolution Roasters and the Constellation Collective have teamed up to form a new food-and-beverage café at the west end of the Market. Pull up a chair in their seating area and enjoy locally-roasted coffee and breakfast treats.
Villa Barone. Fresh breads and recently pizza from this Haddon Avenue Collingswood restaurant’s brick oven, sauces and prepared items from the kitchen, and the very popular zeppoles make this a must-visit table.
Sara’s Produce, by special arrangement, is the one source for produce NOT grown in New Jersey. They are mandated to bring us the “exotics” so our shoppers won’t need to go to the supermarket for an avocado or a lemon.

SQUASH POCKET SCONE
Susan Mauer Lynch (YellowRoomUpstairs).
Squash Pocket Scone
Ricotta cheese and mascarpone; cinnamon, ginger and sugar; egg, butter and flour; and the special Market ingredient: winter squash puree from one of several farm vendors this week. Judging by the color of the filling here, we’re looking at a butternut. But you get to choose. It’s your scone! Follow the link for recipe, complete instructions, and more beautiful photographs (plus insights into the Mauer Lynch family!). https://yellowroomupstairs.wordpress.com/2018/11/08/squash-pocket-scones/
In the Dog Tent
Voorhees Animal Orphanage
ADOPTABLE FOREST
Voorhees Animal Orphanage.
The wonderful people of the Voorhees Animal Orphanage will be staffing the Dog Tent for us this week, sharing stories of rescuing needy animals at extreme expense. They’ll distribute the essential Official Market leash to your 4-legged companions, and introduce you to adoption possibilities. We don’t know who they’ll bring, but we’d like to meet Forest, a 9-year-old Chi mix who is absolutely adorable! He is a sweet little low-energy guy who prefers napping in the sun. His perfect home would be with a retired person and a little yard of his own. Ask about Forest and many other adoptable animals at the Dog Tent.
For the Art Lovers
Handmade Holidays
HANDMADE HOLIDAYS 2018
For the final three weeks of the Market (after the first of the farms have departed for the season), we celebrate local art, craft, and original handmade items sold by the hands that make them. No resale, no thrift items; these are quality juried crafts and specimen art pieces (some practical, some whimsical, all eminently giftable)!

Small Bills and a Bathroom Key
Many of you know, but for those of you who don’t, I carry small bills for vendors who run out of singles during the Market day. For guest vendors who might not be aware, I also have a key to Perkins Art Center, a Market sponsor, the primary benefit of which, for our vendors is INDOOR PLUMBING!
VENDOR PARKING PERMITS
It’s good business to save the best parking spaces for SHOPPERS! Most visitors will tell you it’s tough to find parking at the Market. We make things worse by parking our own vehicles in spaces that could be used and re-used many times by shoppers. Please encourage your table crew to park for free in the Lumberyard Parking Garage (just across Collings Avenue from the west entrance). There are plenty of spaces inside, and the walk back to the Market takes 3 minutes.
Flexible Site Plan
Changes will continue to occur throughout the season as vendors come and go and as we learn more about how neighbors interact. I remind you no spaces are ever guaranteed and require your cooperation if I have to move your location any given week.
