🌸 APRIL RECAP 🌸
✨ Chandra
A month that started with a surprise concert from Derek to see Dashboard Confessional (25 years later and still on repeat 🎸🎶). From helping Kaila bring her incredible shipwreck vision to life, to a quick family getaway before the Spring Market 🌴
The Spring Market was an absolute blast, 18 years in and still just as exciting. She loved collaborating with @utoffeea@vandermeer_greenhouses , and @freshemblem on the selfie wall ❤️📸
Bringing the Wellness Lounge to life with @thisisfortify and @collectiverentals_ was a true highlight 🩷
Her sourdough journey continues… and this month she made her BEST loaf yet (still working on that roll 🤭🍞). Morning deer visits 🦌 and cheering on Ella + Winman Surge (top 5 in the province!) made April extra special 🏐
✨ Vanessa
Finally checked out First Fridays in the Exchange, shoutout to @468main + all the vintage gems ✨
Busy working on launching a Swedish candy company 👀 @the.sweet.edit.ca 🍬
And kicked off ice cream season with @subzerowinnipeg 🍦
✨ Emily
Garden + backyard planning in full swing 🌷🥕
So many fun memories made at the Spring Market 🫶
Early birthday love from her parents 🎶✨
And lots of muddy paws this month 🐾😂
🐾 Yumi
Best day ever = vendor load-in at Red River… all the love, belly rubs, hugs, kisses, and LOTS of treats 🐶🦴

It takes a village…and this year’s Spring selfie wall was one for the books! 🥹✨
A huge thank you to Joel @freshemblem for taking a visual that Chandra + Veronica created on paper and bringing it to life by building, painting and stickering the wall and displays. Shout out to his helper Matt!
Veronica @vandermeer_greenhouses you are a creative genius in how you decorated and brought the wall to life with your beautiful plants!
Thanks to both of you for working along side us, for pouring your time, creativity, and care into this collaboration. From the very first idea to the final setup, you brought it to life in the most beautiful way 🌿🙌
No greater reward than watching shoppers with their families and besties and the maker community take photos in front of the wall making memories!
We say this all the time, we are more than a market. We are an experience!!
