Homestead Marketplace is pleased to welcome shoppers, collectors and
treasure hunters to the 2nd Annual Homestead Antique Market, taking place Saturday,
September 26, from 8am to 4pm, and Sunday, September 27, from 8am to 2pm at Homestead
Marketplace, 6 Douglas Road in Trenton.
This year’s market will feature 50 vendors from across Ontario—double the number of vendors
who participated last year—offering an expanded selection of antiques, vintage finds, artisan
goods and one-of-a-kind collectibles.
A minimum donation of $2 per person will be requested at the gate, with 100% of proceeds
donated to Volunteer & Information HPE (VIQ). Last year’s event raised $5,000 in support of
VIQ, and organizers are encouraging the community to help reach this goal once again.
“Our mission has always been to create a memorable weekend for antique lovers, families, and
local visitors while giving back to an organization that does so much for our community,” said
Mike Eden, owner of Homestead Marketplace. “With twice as many vendors this year, live local
entertainment, and fundraising opportunities throughout the weekend, we’re excited to welcome
everyone back to the 2nd Annual Homestead Antique Market.”
