A heartfelt thanks to all our wonderful stall holders for filling the day with colour, flavour, creativity and community spirit. And to the many visitors who came to browse, taste, chat and support local — we’re so glad you joined us.
The kids had an especially brilliant time hunting Easter eggs as well as making seed eggs — getting their hands messy and crafting something they can take home, plant, and watch grow.
McGregor showed up with heart once again. See you again next year!
