Holiday Market Shop Hop: A Festive Trolley Shopping Tour - December 20

You’ve been holding the holiday season together with glitter, wrapping paper, and sheer determination. Now it’s your turn to relax and revel in the spirit of the season on our holiday trolley tour made just for Santa’s busiest helpers!

You’ll hop aboard our vintage-inspired (and holiday decorated!) trolley and let us drive you around the Chippewa Valley in style so you can unwind, browse charming makers markets, and share a few well-earned laughs with other women who get it.

Grab a friend or two and spend the morning checking out handmade treasures, holiday décor, small-batch chocolates and snacks, and unique gifts without worrying about driving, traffic, or parking.

First, join us at the festively decorated Local Store at 9am to browse tons of locally made items, Midwest-themed gifts, and holiday decor (optional, but encouraged because there’s SO much cool stuff!). Then, at 9:30am you’ll board the trolley and head to these three events:

Market at Market on River

128 W. River St., Chippewa Falls

Market on River is home to the headquarters for Wisconsin Farmers Union and a variety of small businesses such as Hiker Coffee, The Juggery, The Mercantile, and more! On this day, in addition to the in-house small businesses, pop-up vendors will be set up throughout the building with tasty and unique products you won’t find anywhere else.

Winter Farmers Market in the Greenhouse at Down To Earth Garden Center

6025 Arndt Ln., Eau Claire

Down to Earth hosts local farmers selling everything from honey to beef to jams to pork… Veggies to syrup to honey to cheese, and so much more! Come stroll through the farmers’ booths and enjoy the sights, sounds, and scents of the greenhouse at Down to Earth. You can also browse the goods at the Mustard Seed Boutique and John Scott Men’s Apparel, or get a snack and a little pick-me-up at the Five & Two Cafe and Local Market!

Wisconsin Makers Market

404 S. Barstow St., Eau Claire

In addition to handmade products from 120+ Wisconsin artisans, The Wisconsin Makers Market opens its doors to winter markets when the Wisconsin chill sets in. Discover local vendors with beautiful handmade goods, soaps, pottery, home decor, jewelry, macrame, maple syrup, and other necessities!

This trolley adventure is your time to slow down and soak up the yuletide spirit you’ve worked so hard to create. This is a ONE-DAY-ONLY event that you will NOT want to miss! Reserve your seats today!
