Saturday August 23, 2025 was our annual Kids’ Tasting Day. For those new and returning, let’s go over how the Tasting Day works!
- When a child comes to the Market, he/she/they should come to the Information Tent.
- Each child will be given a half sheet of paper (aka “the card”) with a list of participating vendors and will become an “expert judge”.
- The expert judge will then go around and get samples from the participating vendors.
- The expert judge will taste each sample. The expert judge needs to taste the samples from the all participating vendors (as long as allergies and/or dietary restrictions don’t prohibit he/she/they from doing so, of course!).
- The expert judge will check the boxes after the food is tasted.
- The expert judge finally brings their completed card to the Information Booth for a Market Buck.
- If the expert judge tries at least 3 samples, he or she will will receive one Market Buck!
- If the expert judge tries every sample, he or she will receive two Market Bucks!
Check back in May 2026 for our event dates, including the Kids Tasting Event!
There are few things that are more joyful than witnessing a child beam with success as seen by their triumphant smile with his/her/their “trophy” in hand. Seen below are some of the winners from previous years’ Kids’ Tasting.

















And, our canine friends enjoyed it too…
