Two Weekends of Free Halloween Happenings at Saint Paul Farmers’ Market

The Saint Paul Farmers’ Market will host two weekends of fun, free Halloween happenings for kids. On October 23 and 24 from 9am-12pm, the downtown Lowertown market will host its annual Pumpkin Decorating Station. The following weekend, October 30-31 from 9am-1pm, all Saint Paul Farmers’ Market locations will host Trick-or-Treating festivities for kids. The markets are brimming with pumpkins, gourds, seasonal produce, autumn flowers and plants, honey, meats, cheese, eggs, baked goods, and more. The Lowertown market location also has live music each weekend and free coffee until 9am, and hungry shoppers will find numerous cooked foods available for purchase from market favorites Chef Earls’ BBQ, Golden’s Bagels, Natasha’s Pierogis, and Minnebun’s steamed Bao buns, as well as delicious donuts.
