FINE LINE BODY YEG says "What a fantastic Market! As a first time vendor this year I was impressed by the planning, organization and advertising for this event! Many customers raved about how this is always the best market in Blackfalds and they look forward to it every time. There was a really great array of vendors, well laid out booths, and very attentive organizers. I really loved the little extras put on at this market, entry donations to the local rescue, door prizes every 45 minutes, play zone for the kids and a beautiful festive photo booth! It was definitely worth the travel from Edmonton and I look forward to attending again in the future. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of such a fantastic Market!"

Even though foot traffic and sales were not quite as expected, the organizers had thought of so many details to add to the experience for both shoppers and vendors. The contests and giveaways, the overall marketing, the volunteers that were available to provide change or even watch your booth while you took a break. Many little details that you don't see at other markets and it is greatly appreciated!"

So thank you for the fantastic experience! I am pumped for the Christmas Market!"

Can’t wait to be back for another one!"

I’m all my years I’ve never had ‘booth minders’ when I needed to step away for a quick minute and any questions were so promptly answered.

CHERENE L COLBY says "This was the 1st time I had the pleasure of joining the Blackfalds fall market. I have to say my experience there was probably one of my most favorite experiences yet in 5 years of doing markets. The atmosphere was pleasant and positive. The organizers were very efficient and kind. The extra little perks that go along with this market such as the water bottle, snack bag and the vendor tag and more, set this market apart from the rest. On day 2 my daughter's boyfriend and friend volunteered to watch my table for me for the day as I had a family celebration of life to attend for a recently passed family member. Even they had an amazing time and really enjoyed themselves, which I think speaks highly to the atmosphere of the market. Even the simple addition of having a vendor designated bathroom made everything run smoother. I had a really great time and I hope to do it again in the days ahead. I also pretty much sold out of product so on the next one I'll have to be sure to bring more caramels. Thank you to the hard working and efficient organizers. You rock."
JANINE ROCKWELL says "What an incredibly well organized event!! I have attended multiple times, both as a vendor and as a shopper. Hats off to the three of you for all of the amazing work you do, and always with smiles on your faces. The vendor selection is fabulous and there is always a lot of traffic. We cannot thank you enough for all that you do, and we are most certain that the foundations that you support are so thankful for you too!! We look forward to seeing you again and working with you in the future!! NICKOLE PIMLOTT says "This was the best event I have ever been too. The staff were great and did an amazing job organizing it.

They really look after their vendors and all at a very affordable price.

CHERENE L COLBY says "This was the 1st time I had the pleasure of joining the Blackfalds fall market. I have to say my experience there was probably one of my most favorite experiences yet in 5 years of doing markets. The atmosphere was pleasant and positive. The organizers were very efficient and kind. The extra little perks that go along with this market such as the water bottle, snack bag and the vendor tag and more, set this market apart from the rest. On day 2 my daughter's boyfriend and friend volunteered to watch my table for me for the day as I had a family celebration of life to attend for a recently passed family member. Even they had an amazing time and really enjoyed themselves, which I think speaks highly to the atmosphere of the market. Even the simple addition of having a vendor designated bathroom made everything run smoother. I had a really great time and I hope to do it again in the days ahead. I also pretty much sold out of product so on the next one I'll have to be sure to bring more caramels. Thank you to the hard working and efficient organizers. You rock."

The organization team was fabulous, the little treat bags were a nice surprise. The organizers checked on us, volunteers were around numerous times to see if we needed change which was appreciated. They really look after their vendors and all at a very affordable price. The advertising was outstanding and the opportunities for advance promotion for the vendors was very much appreciated, you just don't see that very often. I will be looking forward to the opportunity to participate in future shows that's for sure. Thank you to everyone! StarlightSnacks"
