Many current participants, such as Blaze Gourmet, Olive and the Grape, Judy's Oasis, White Family Farm, Needham Gardens, The Enchanted Lotus and West Park Massotherapy, live in the community and many others live in surrounding cities and neighborhoods. Vendors like Troubadour Coffee, Jimmy's Jams, Backyard Gardens, Sweets and Treats, L&L Knife Sharpening, and Ohio City Pasta, live in neighboring suburbs while others are from Cleveland neighborhoods. Among the vendors outside of West Park who call Cleveland home are Jenny's Sweets, Lucy's Sweet Surrender, No Whey Chocolates, Spicehound, and Campbell's Sweets Factory. Other local vendors from within a 100 mile radius round out the extensive vendor roster.   The new Market Connect service, which added a few highly sought after products, such as Ohio City Pasta, Judy's Oasis, Campbell's Sweets Factory and Mitchell's Homemade ice cream to the roster, in conjunction with a new market fee structure that incentivizes vendor attendance and enables booth subletting has ensured that customers have a better and more regular product selection when they come to shop. Further solidifying our strong customer base by diversifying the product offerings will continue to attract neighborhood local food start-ups and existing businesses to vend at the market.   So grab your reusable shopping bags and head over to the market every Sunday. With live music from 11-2, chef demos at 12:30, a rotating roster of guest artists, and a wellness booth, the Kamm's Corners Farmers Market also serves as a community gathering space to meet and greet your neighbors!
