Cold Feet, Warm Heart?



    Wrap your feet in warmth this winter.   We have close to 15 different  styles of Dahlgern socks… they are a  blend of alpaca, wool, and a bit of nylon… and easy to care for!  If socks aren’t your thing, consider a pair of boot liners.  You may have seen these at the Ithaca farmers market.  We have 100% alpaca boot liners to keep your toes toasty… And let’s not forget our fingers and ears!  We’ve got hats, mittens, ear warmers, fingerless gloves and scarves…We are open Tuesday through Saturday 11:00 to 6:00 and by chance on Sunday’s and Mondays!

big Thank You...to the community!

"The People" of The People's Market would like to thank those who remembered to shop local. We had a wonderful two days of sales and are very excited for our vendors! We initially thought we would be low on inventory after Black Friday weekend...but after a couple of great days of sales we still have LOTS of inventory!
It was exciting to see may people from the community stop in to shop and for some... see The People's Market for the first time. We had lots of positive feedback and people are just amazed at what they find when they walk through the doors of The People's Market. There is a lot of really great local talent and we are lucky to have them as vendors...after all it is people creating items for the people, but also people helping people... that is a big component of shopping local. Keeping our money in the area helps our community and strengthens us. Lets stay strong together in these tight financial times. Thank you again!
