Sweepstakes & Events

This is the time of year when Nini would normally be at markets and events with plants, garden items, and other products depending on the event. Sadly, the Covid 19 pandemic has these local events on hold indefinitely. Until we are able to gather in crowds again, please stay healthy and be well.

The Kane County Flea Market in St Charles is known as the "Best in the Midwest or Anywhere," so Nini decided to give it a whirl. This Market has been in operation for the last 51 years . As one of the longest running, best antique and collectable Flea Markets in the world, it promises to be fun! Nini will be in the Trades building with air plants, fairy and gnome garden items, halloween miniatures, jewelry, and some surprises. Shopping hours are Saturday from 12pm-5pm & Sunday from 7am-4pm. Admission $5 per adult, children under 12 are free when accompanied by an adult, and parking is free. The market is located at the Kane County Fair Grounds at 525 South Randall Road, St Charles, IL.

The Market at Richardson Farm is done for the season. I met some great people there and enjoyed selling air plants, succulents, fairy garden items, and more. I will be taking a break from venues for the next couple of weeks, but folks can still contact me to make an appointment to stop by my humble abode to peruse fairy/troll garden items and air plants. Soon I'll post information on my next venue. Meanwhile, enjoy the last of summer and getting the kids ready for school!
