Rochester, NY is filled with wonderful things to do during the holiday season! They offer a multitude of activities for all celebrations, Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa. The activities are for all age groups, very kid-friendly, and many of them are free! I was able to go to the Eastman House last week to see the Gingerbread House exhibit and attend “Holiday At The Public Market,” a tradition that has been happening for 25 years! Holiday fun at the Rochester Public Market.
The first thing I saw, were the garland boughs and boxwood wreaths. The prices were amazing! I will definitely be back next year to get greens for my holiday flower boxes and a wreath for the front door.
After the greens you enter the outdoor vendor area. Yes, that is snow, also it was windy and very cold! But that does not keep Rochesterian’s away!
They were giving rides in an old horse-drawn carriage. How fun is that!
This ornament was made from a gourd; look at the detail! The giraffe was also from the same booth. They were all made by artisans who are part of “One World Projects”. “One World Projects” strives to reduce poverty, restore balance in nature, and promote peace by giving artisans around the world a chance to earn fair wages and improve their lives and communities.
Ho-Ho-Ho! I saw more signs and Santas than you can shake a candy cane at! Now I've got my sights set on finding an old sled to recreate the one I saw here!
When I entered the indoor market, I immediately began to salivate from the amazing aromas that filled the air.
There is something for everyone! The aroma as I entered the pavilion made my mouth water!
“Cosimano e Ferrari” Olive oil company offered free Olive Oil tastings. Delicious!
They also sell lotions and soap.
“Taste of Supreme” offers 100% gluten free baked goods. I would serve these to everyone, not just my gluten free friends. Taste of Supreme website
I purchased this pot pie for my son at “Newbury Park Pastries”. It did not stand a chance!
I had lunch at Hettie’s Delites Café! The food was delicious and the portions very generous!
The Rochester Public Market Holiday celebration is a diverse multicultural experience that everyone should enjoy. It will definitely become an annual tradition for me!
Happy Holidays to all! May your New Year bring peace and joy!
