Love Local Gifts? Don’t Miss Oswego’s Holiday Farmers’ Market

The holiday season may still be a few weeks away, but Oswego County is already getting into the festive spirit.

One event each December is the Oswego County Holiday Farmers’ Market, and this year’s vendor lineup has officially been announced. If you love local food, handmade gifts, or simply a cozy place to sip hot chocolate while you shop, you’ll definitely want to mark your calendar.

When and Where Is the Holiday Farmers’ Market?

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oswego County is once again teaming up with the Greater Mexico Chamber of Commerce to bring the market to life as part of the annual “Christmas in Mexico” celebration. The event is set for Saturday, December 6th, from 9AM to 3PM at the Mexico VFW on Scenic Avenue. That's right along Route 3, just north of the village. The best part? Admission is free, and they’re even handing out complimentary coffee and hot chocolate to keep everyone warm while they browse.
