They had dozens of charming and friendly vendors, selling beer, baked goods, soaps, maple products, and a whole lot of fresh produce. There was a BBQ Stand, an ice cream stand, an a donut stand. They had live music in the form of a young guitarist-vocalist with the very cool name of Adelaide Punkin- and let me tell you, she was great. We walked around and picked up a bag of beef jerky from the West's Side Jerky stand, a small tomato focaccia plus biscottis and scones from Better Baking By Beth and a few Apple Cider donuts from another cool name we saw at the Market - Dude's Donuts. Everyone was wearing masks and observing COVID protocol and social distancing. The Bristol Farmer's Market deserves your support. I'm sure as the Summer goes on it will get bigger and bigger.

There were so many cars pulling in and out of the small parking lot, it resembled a demolition derby. Having just finished dinner, now I know why it was so busy. We picked up 2 ears of corn to have for dinner tonight, and let me tell you -they were terrific. Without exaggeration, some of the best corn I have ever tasted. Ten times better than the scrawny and tasteless ears I got from Rosedale Farms just a few days ago. The corn was quite large, and every perfect kernel was plump and bursting with flavor. I am now a big fan !

There are sparkling lights to see,…read morethey have plush things to touch, they have handmade soaps to smell, they have tasty samples to taste, and of course all of the excitement to hear. Bristol Bazaar is a collection of vendors selling their handmade merchandise at the same place. They are open all year, six days a week. With the holiday season in full force, you will find ornaments and tree toppers galore. They have screen printed and embroidered t-shirts and hoodies. There are toys, keychains, jewelry, plants and more. The best part about shopping or browsing at Bristol Bazaar is the checkout process. There's no need to make an individual purchase at each vendor, instead you can collect all of the goodies in your shopping basket, then cash out at the register. This helps keep things moving, and less people standing around. The items are marked with barcodes, so the makers receive their portion of the sale. If you're looking for a unique handmade gift, Bristol Bazaar is the place to go!

(The Clash) The Bristol Bazaar is one of the most colorful and visually appealing marketplaces I've ever seen. It was a kaleidoscope of colors, shapes, and patterns. What a cool concept - a rotating ever-changing roster of over 65 local makers and artisans in a beautiful space with a built-in coffee bar and cocktail lounge (Yellow King Bristol). And if that isn't enough, they also offer crafting workshops, special events, and a classroom. Their website summarizes their mission - "We are looking for entrepreneurs who make their products by hand and are looking to make their side hustle, a full-time gig". Well said! We had a blast strolling through the Bazaar and marveling at the creativity and talent of the local makers. Everything here is made by hand by the sellers- no reselling is allowed. We walked out with a jar of caramel sauce from La Famiglia Tedesco for a certain caramel loving grand-daughter and a jar of Bloody Mary mix from Bloody Good Mud for a certain Bloody Mary loving Yelper. Because the roster of makers can change every month, you'll never really run out of new stuff to look at.

In addition to veggies, Carole and Mark also have free range chickens who jump in little cubicles to lay their eggs. Usually the Grandpa of the family who is in his 90's gathers the eggs and cleans them. The farm has stands at the Torrington Farmers' Market on Saturdays and at the Collinsville Farmers' Market on Sundays during the season. Recently Jack & I had the opportunity to take a tour of the grounds. The crop looked amazing. My favorite was a visit to the "chicken coop" which was a large room in a barn with an outdoor area. The critters even have a pigeon friend who hangs out with them.
