MEXICO, N.Y. — Holiday festivities are right around the corner, and excitement is in the air! Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oswego County (CCE Oswego) will be contributing to the cheer with the 2022 Oswego County Holiday Farmers’ Market! As part of the Greater Mexico Chamber of Commerce’s annual “Christmas in Mexico” celebration, this unique holiday market event is set to take place Saturday, December 3, 2022, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Mexico VFW, located at 5390 Scenic Avenue (State Route 3), just north of the Village of Mexico, N.Y. Free coffee and hot chocolate will be offered at the event.
Support Oswego County’s agricultural economy by stopping in for amazing, holiday-inspired agriculture-related gift ideas, decorations, and food and beverage products sold by local producers and vendors. Started by CCE Oswego back in 2009, the annual Oswego County Holiday Farmers’ Market has become a hallmark event, with hundreds of customers visiting the market yearly, each year outnumbering the last. It carries a tradition of connecting consumers with local Oswego County vendors selling products made from the county’s agricultural and natural resources, all amidst a festive holiday atmosphere.
Vendor registration for 2022 has already closed due to vendor spaces having sold out. That means vendors at the Mexico VFW will be at maximum capacity, with many products available to buy, including baked goods, candles, gourmet mustards, honey, jams, maple syrup, milk soaps and lotions, fresh garlic, wood-carved items and much more! This year’s vendors include:
- Ashley Lynn Winery
- Ben & Deeb’s Specialties
- Bristol’s Weather Haven Farm
- Dancing Goat Farm
- Foggy Dew Candle Co.
- Grace Tyler Estate Winery LLC
- Hives of Howard
- Hycamore Homemade
