Children’s Christmas Market

The third annual Children’s Christmas Market will be hosted by Salmonberry School on Saturday, Nov. 28 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The community is invited to peruse naturally crafted items priced from 25 cents to $5. There are hand made cards, scarves, buttons and leather bracelets, jewelry, baked goods and holiday decorations.

Rachel Bishop started the market to give kids both an opportunity to sell their creations, but also to offer an affordable place to shop.

Theo Vaccarella is back for his third year at the market. He previously shared a table with his brothers Sam and Angelo, but they have been working so hard this year they have two tables between the three of them. He says he likes the market “because it is fun to show people what you like to do and can do, and it’s fun to earn money.”

Molly and Lucy Troxel are also returning for their third year. Their dad Andy says the market teaches them “planning, organizing, setting goals, the creative side of things and the financial thing.”
