Spring Market!

We’re excited to announce that the Delta Bay Foundation will again bring its Sunday Market to the central Meadow at Park Delta Bay.

The 2023 season launches with the Spring Market, Sunday, May 7th, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.  With a host of vendors both returning and new, the Spring Market celebrates Mother’s Day with hearts, flowers, and merchandise for you, your mother, or a special lady whom you want to honor.

Seen here in 2021, Robin Pack’s Tiny Bakeshop reaches new heights in 2023 with a cottage kitchen license, gluten-friendly product, and even more luscious treats than ever!

The Sunday Market welcomes back to its fold a much-loved vendor from its first two seasons, Robin Pack, who premiers exciting new items in her Tiny Bakeshop.  The Tiny Bakeshop fare comes to you from Robin’s newly cottage-kitchen- licensed #tinyhouseonwheels, in the heart of the tiny house section of our Park.  She’ll be showcasing bestsellers from her prior years, including fresh fruit crumble, cinnamon crumb cakes, brownies, and lemon cakes.  She will also expand her menu depending on locally available fruits and produce.  “My offerings will focus on seasonal fresh ingredients,” she tells our roving reporter.  “I will also try to include a gluten-friendly offering each time,” she adds.

Robin has been baking for many years, since she and her sister started a business selling their home-baked goods door-to-door.  She dazzles her customers by using high-quality ingredients and the deftness of her skill.  Your roving reporter will be first in line when the Tiny Bakeshop returns to the Sunday Market!    We can tell you from past experience that she typically sells out early in the day, so don’t delay — catch her booth first, and celebrate your mother, yourself, or anyone special with an amazing treat from the Tiny Bakeshop.

In the coming weeks, this space will highlight other vendors who will be showing and selling at the Spring Market and throughout the season.  Here are the dates for the Sunday Market’s 2023 season:
