REMINDER: There is no Market next week (November 29).
We’ll send a reminder next week!

Our apologies for the problems with parking last week. We knew there was an event scheduled in the gym but were not aware of the number of buses and cars that would be involved. We are working actively with both the BR Middle School and Purdue Polytech on finding a better parking solution for big event days like these.
Unfortunately, this week we have a new challenge. There will be a large crane at the north entrance to the school which means that the north entrance will be closed. Customers will need to use the south entrance by the school parking lot. So best options for parking this week will be in the school lot, behind Einstein’s and the neighborhoods south.

Vendor Highlights
- Last week for donations to Boulevard Place Food Pantry! Thanks to everyone for their generosity! Tables will be set up at both the north and south entrances to drop off donations. See this list of needed items.

- Jason Michael Thomas is bringing locally grown and ground grains (wheat flour, polenta/grits, and oatmeal) this week – just in time for Thanksgiving!

Click here to see the complete vendor list of our Winter Market vendors. To find vendor locations at the Market, check the Friday newsletter for our Vendor Map, scan the Vendor Map QR Code at the entrance to the Market, OR check out the large printout at the Market entrance. The Vendor Map and Vendor list are also available on our website.
Remember to bring CASH in order to purchase from the few vendors who don’t take credit cards (Norman Mullet Farm and Phelps Family Farm).
Lost & Found items are turned in to the BRFM Information booth – be sure to check there if you’ve lost something (water bottles, wallets, kids’ stuff) at the Market.
WHAT’S COOKING: Shredded Parmesan Brussels Sprouts
Tossing shaved brussels sprouts in olive oil and popping them in a hot oven will give you crisy caramelized goodness that you won’t get from roasting whole or halved sprouts. This super simple side is packed with flavor!
MUSIC AT THE MARKET:Fall Creek Delta Boys
The Fall Creek Delta Boys bring us traditional American folk music including bluegrass, jug band, blues, train songs, early country, children’s tunes, waltzes, cowboy songs, gospel, and 1960s folk numbers. All fun! Our musicians volunteer to perform at the Market, so tips are much appreciated!
