This week (Saturday, December 4th, 2021) kicks off the first week of our Winter Markets! Each week you will find your regular farmers and food vendors, but you'll also find a rotating selection of crafters and artisans, musicians, food trucks, and more!
This week we will also be hosting a blanket and towel drive for the ACCT. Here are a few words from Justine, the organizer of the blanket drive:
"It's that time of year again! Send some love to the fur babies of ACCT Philly with the 4th annual Blanket & Towel Drive! While they wait for their forever homes, help to keep them warm and cozy this fall and winter with your blanket donations. I started this event at my studio, Yoga Brain East Falls back in 2018, and have continued the tradition each year since. Last year & this year, I have coupled this event with my work in COVID testing education to help share all the resources available to stay safe and healthy during the holiday season.
IMPORTANT:
Donations will be accepted between 10-2p in the parking lot at the East Falls Farmers Market. Please bring clean blankets and towels, in bags or small boxes if possible. No monetary donations will be accepted. Please refer to the ACCT Wishlist before bringing items to donate. Items not listed will not be accepted. Items will only be collected during event times at the event location. Stay tuned for another date in December 🙌
