Shop Market on Mellwood April 17

With warmer weather on the way and life slowly but surely returning to normal, we are excited to announce a new tenant-led event, Market on Mellwood, springing up this Spring on April 17th. The brainchild of our friends at the Mellwood Antique Mall and Barn Doors and More, Market on Mellwood will be an outdoor, open-air market featuring an array of different vendors, including jewelry makers, leatherworkers, a wreathmaker, candlemakers, and many more. The event will feature tenants and non-tenants alike, with RecycloCraftz, Dead Sled Leather, Uneena’s, and Danny Mac’s Pizza among the participating Mellwood tenants. Booths will be spaced out on the front lawn and courtyard, which will not only allow shoppers to socially distance, but also provide them with easier viewing of and access to each vendor’s products. Visitors and vendors alike are required to wear masks.

With Mr. G’s Kettle Corn and Mile Wide Beer providing additional food and beverage options, guests will be able to enjoy craft beer and kettle corn with a slice or two from Danny Mac’s.

Besides offering visitors a chance to get out and support local businesses, Market on Mellwood’s organizers will be raffling off prizes every hour on the hour. Provided by local businesses, prizes will take the form of gift cards or vouchers. These may include vouchers specific to the business providing them or Visa or Mastercard gift cards. Prize donors do not have to be vendors in order to contribute a prize. To enter the raffle, visitors must provide a phone number or email address to receive a ticket. This information will only be used to contact prize winners; entrants’ contact information will not be used for any other purposes and will not be saved or stored in any way. Entrants will not need to be present to win, but must have attended Market on Mellwood to enter the raffle; only one ticket will be issued per visitor. Tickets will be available in the Mellwood Antique Mall.

If you would like to participate, either as a vendor, volunteer, or prize donor, there is still time to get involved. Vendor space is limited. Contact Vicki Brandt at barndoorsplus@gmail.com for more information. If you are interested in participating as a vendor or prize donor, be sure to include your name, business name (if applicable), description of products or services, address, business phone number, and business email address. In the event of inclement weather on April 17th, April 24th will serve as a fall back date. For more information, check out the Market on Mellwood 2021 Facebook page.
