Audubon Park Community Market
Wednesdays 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM
Stardust Video & Coffee
The Audubon Park Community Market is welcoming the arrival of fall by moving the makret back outdoors. After taking shelter from a long, hot and rainy summer, the market is ready to move back outside Stardust Video and Coffee with a special opening event. The Seasonal Grand Opening will feature an evening of local goodness, including music, food, art, and more!
Stop by to have a warm, vibrant meal from ROOTS, an exclusive vendor focused on bringing different local, organic, and seasonal vegan dinners to you each week. Or stock up for your own meals at home by visiting the fantastic local food vendors, like Big Wheel Provisions, which serves up everything from local, free-range eggs and meats to gourmet sauces, soups, dips, seasonings and more all incorporating lovely local ingredients. Indulge your sweet tooth with a bag of beautiful handmade chocolates from Chateau Confections, get a relaxing massage from Karmonic Hands, or stroll through the tents to see all the unique, locally handcrafted goods, from jewelry to soaps.
The Seasonal Grand Opening will also feature live music from Sarah Purser, as well as the arrival of the Ourlando Local Kids corner. Different fun, creative activities will be available at the market each week, free of charge. For the opening night, Shine On Yoga will be offering a glimpse of their new children’s program, Shine On Kids.
The market will be adding to the fun with great raffle prizes provided by many of the wonderful vendors. Winners could take home tasty foods, free music, beautiful plants, massage gift certificates, and more!
This is just the kick-off of a great season of local fun, with a little something for just about everyone in the Ourlando community.
