give back this christmas

“I had my first ever market with The Mom Market Vancouver Island and it couldn’t have been a better experience as a first-timer. The team took all the stress off with clear communication ahead of the day, awesome organization the day of, and wonderful positivity. I recommend it for anyone wanting to get started at markets. I’m already looking forward to the next one I’ve signed up for!” 

"My son asked when we got into the car after leaving The Mom Market, "that was so much fun! When is the next one?!" And this morning, my daughter asked if we could go again. Clearly, you have nailed it because we all loved it! A happy 12 year old boy at a market? Seriously, you appealed to all."

My experience with the Mom Market was incredibly positive! Jessica puts together a very versatile, yet unique collection of vendors and ensures there’s something for everyone. She is super active on social media which is both beneficial for events and for vendors to use afterwards for promotional purposes. There is always an open flow of communication between the vendors and the organizing team. During the market they were constantly circling, checking up on everyone - both customers and vendors alike. The vendor fees are higher than other markets, yes. Like everything in life, you get what you pay for. Much more promotion through social media, a curated and carefully selected vendor lineup, and constant care and communication through the whole process! Will definitely vend again in the near future!!

Thank you so much for coordinating such a great event for shoppers and vendors! This was the most welcome I have ever felt in a setting like this and the sense of community was off the charts. 

It was my pleasure to have Jessica guide us through our first Market experience! Such a warm and genuine person who did such a great job of making us feel welcome and promoting all of our creations. I would recommend this Market and Jessica to any first time vendors and look forward to working with her again in the future

THANK YOU! The space you created, all the promotions and marketing *chefs kiss*! You are seriously one of the kindest souls and I am so grateful I get to be a part of your markets. I have never met a market director who cares about their vendors the way you do and it is so heart warming. I can’t wait to continue seeing your business flourish! Thanks for all you do, we all appreciate you so so much.

Though it wasn't my first market, it was my first in a city, and I arrived already stressed to my breaking point. Jessica understood the stresses of market life, and went beyond my expectations to help ease my nerves so that I could enjoy the evening. I'll  definitely return to sell at the Mom Market again!

We just wanted to thank you for your support in having us at the Mom Market and to congratulate you on such a successful event! We had a great time and raised close to $850.00!

It was so nice to meet you, and your family! You’ve got a super group surrounding you and I can see why you have such a huge following. Congratulations on providing the island entrepreneurs an outlet where they can shine!

The event on Saturday was great! Our family just moved here and its so much fun to have some great music and markets on the island. Looking forward to coming to more events. I’m glad I followed the IG group so I could see all the fun stuff happening. I could see you running around Saturday - very busy! Just wanted to say you all did a fabulous job!

The Mom Market is a fantastic opportunity for small business owners to get out in their community and meet their supporters (and each other!)  in person. I've done several markets now and they are always so well planned out and organized. I find Jessica wonderful to work with and always so enthusiastic about every aspect of her markets. She makes sure all the little details are just right. I had the most amazing vendor experience at my most recent market with one of my shoppers even commenting that the location was "magical" at Keating Farm! I have already recommended her markets to my small business friends and look forward to doing more myself in the near future ♡
