Winter Market - Sugar Grove's Indoor Farmer's Market

Sponsored by the Sugar Grove Library Foundation

The Sugar Grove Library Foundation-sponsored Winter Market will be cancelled for the previously scheduled 3/9/2024 and 4/13/2024 dates. The Library can no longer continue to offer the Winter Market at this time without the help of dedicated volunteers.

Prior to the 2023-2024 season, this Winter Market was managed and produced by volunteers from the Sugar Grove Farmer’s Market. The Farmers' Market has since closed down, and the volunteers were unable to host Winter Market this year.

The Sugar Grove Library Foundation tried offering this series in October, November, December 2023, and February 2024. However, administration of this event has proved to be more time-intensive than predicted. In addition, the Library’s Facebook event was replicated by scammers who were able to scam three vendors with a fake application and charge them fees. Vendors also see mixed results with attendance.

We encourage our library patrons to visit other local markets, including two Artisan Markets hosted by Rosewood Farms in Sugar Grove, scheduled for Sunday May 5, 2024 and Sunday September 8, 2024.

Interested Vendors: 

Winter Market application is no longer available for the 2023-2024 season.
