Nardin Park United Methodist Church will host the inaugural Evergreen Artisan Holiday Market on Saturday, Nov. 14, featuring more than 70 local artists and crafters in Farmington Hills.
The market runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Fellowship Hall at 29887 W. 11 Mile Road. The church’s event announcement lists handmade merchandise, holiday decorations and artisan foods.
Visitors can purchase food and specialty drinks while shopping. Families can also take photos with Santa at no charge from 2 to 4 p.m.
Olive Thyme Catering, which operates at the church’s address, describes the event as the inaugural Evergreen market. The company’s website confirms the Nov. 14 date and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. hours.
Two workshops are advertised in a community-submitted event listing on Patch:
- Olive Thyme’s pizza and cupcake class runs from 10 to 11:30 a.m., listed at $22 per guest.
- Laurie Freeman’s fused-glass snowman ornament workshop runs from noon to 2 p.m., listed at $22.31 per guest. Participants must be at least 8, and children must attend with an adult who also purchases a ticket.
The church began seeking vendors over the summer. Its Aug. 4 vendor announcement listed $50 table rentals and $10 child-crafter tables, with applications due Sept. 15.
Another Farmington Hills market takes place the same day. Hope Holiday Market runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Hope Lutheran Church, 39200 W. 12 Mile Road. Admission is $1, and onsite parking is free.
Hope’s market, formerly the Alternative Christmas Fair, features nonprofit organizations selling gifts to support their work.
