HELENA–Market Days has essentially become a weekend staple during the summer months in Helena and now the popular market will extend into the fall season.

Helena Market Days organizer Scot Newman said with the amount of success the market saw in the summer, a decision has been made to continue Helena Market Days through the fall.

A variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, performers, chef demonstrations and more will fill the Helena Amphitheater again beginning Saturday, Sept. 9.

The Fall Market will take place each Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon starting Sept. 9 through Nov. 18. There will be no market on Oct. 14 due to a previously scheduled event.

Local farmers and artisans at Helena Market Days in the summer included Evan Farms, Boozer Farms, Vincent Gardens, Brady’s Naturals, BB Breads, Emily’s Heirloom Pound Cakes, Frios, Skull Girl Soaps, JnS Treasured Creations, Smoked, The Birminghammer, On-Site Sharpening and more.

The dates for special events will be released when the information becomes available. Dates of fall markets are subject to change.
