NEWS AND EVENTS

Save the Dates: NH Gives, June 11-12
In June, Gilmanton’s Own will join other nonprofit organizations from around NH for a statewide 24-hour online fundraising event. Supporting Gilmanton’s Own through NH Gives is an investment in this region — its agriculture, arts, economy, health, education, and community connections. As a non-profit cooperative market, most of the Market revenue goes back to our vendors — and there are over 80 of them. Help us to continue to offer locally produced goods for the benefit of all.

Mark your calendars! More information soon.
 
 
Gilmanton’s Own Gardens Are Growing!  Here are Nick Pugh and Dick Barr chatting about the great work in progress.

Have you noticed something colorful in the miniature house outside of the Market? This month’s new exhibit, Alex’s Garage, features the custom vehicles of Alex, a 5th grader at Gilmanton Elementary. Check out his multi-color Lego creations and discover cars that can climb mountains, go on rescue missions, fly, float and even teleport.

Eileen’s Tiny Art Place was created by Nick and Eileen Pugh as a place for tiny, local art to be shared with the community. New exhibits monthly. Future ideas and interest are always welcome – let us know at the Market or contact Eileen via Instagram @thetinyartplace

ALWAYS SEEKING VOLUNTEERS!
It truly takes a village to keep the vision of Gilmanton’s Own alive. 
Nearly everything that happens at the market, or associated with it, relies on the effort of dedicated volunteers. We are especially in need of people who would like to serve the community by working in the Market during Market hours — meet lots of good people, help them access our wonderful products, support local farmers and artists. We train, so don’t worry about what retail experience you have!
