It’s no secret that the Redmond community loves its festive events, and holiday markets are no exception. With several exciting markets to get anyone into the holiday spirit, folks can prepare for a fun experience at Faith Hope & Charity Vineyards this weekend.
The vineyard is holding its annual Holiday Marketplace on Saturday, Nov. 30 from 9am to 4pm and Sunday, Dec. 1 from 10am to 4pm. Boasting award-winning wine, Faith Hope & Charity is located in Terrebonne and hosts a number of year-round events. For over five years, the vineyard has offered a special holiday market, inviting the community to wander through a heated tent filled with local vendors and showing off a variety of crafts and products.
In addition to its array of holiday gift options, the market offers vast mountain and vineyard views. Attendees can shop and enjoy the vineyard’s inviting tasting room, where it will serve wine, wood-fired pizza and other fresh plates all day long.
For the first time ever, the market hosts Gompers Distillery, a family-owned distillery in Redmond, sampling and selling its spirits. The family-friendly event will also offer non-alcoholic beverages.
According to Cindy Grossmann, one of the owners of Faith Hope & Charity, the number of vendors varies from year-to-year. This year, she said, the event is hosting about 20 vendors. While many are returning businesses, there are a few new ones that people can visit over the two days. Offerings range from art pieces and jewelry to goat milk candles and jalapeño jellies.
This holiday market is unique because it serves as a destination, according to Grossmann. It’s not unusual for people to come out, shop and stay a while.
Guests looking to come out and support the local vendors are asked to RSVP before attending.
