From kid's clothes to cupcakes

Find a new addition for your garden, discover the perfect item for your child’s wardrobe or suss out a one-of-a-kind birthday or Mother’s Day gift this Saturday at the Cloverdale Spring Fair.

More than 60 vendors from across the Lower Mainland and from as far away as Kelowna and Washington State will selling food and products at the spring fair, running April 6 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Shannon Hall at the Cloverdale Fairgrounds.

Organizer Heather Harasymow is hoping to build on the success of her annual Christmas in Cloverdale Gift and Craft Marketplace, a South-of-the-Fraser version of the variety-filled, urban Christmas markets that she’s operated in late November for the past four years, and is posed to present her fifth.

“This is the first year for the spring one. Lots of the vendors and visitors to the show have been asking for another [craft show] part way through the year,” Harasymow says.

The Cloverdale Spring Fair will offer more seasonal items, to capitalize on the theme. Vendors include TriStar Nurseries, Nature’s Driftwood, jewelry vendor Chikako Tsurusaki and metal work company Senametal Arts. Children’s clothing company Peekaboo Beans will also be on hand, along with a children's book company.

Other wares include bath and body products, hair accessories, and more.

There will also be entertainment for the kids, including magic and balloon animals by Joseph the Magician, and West Coast Entertainment Services will be offering children's face painting, making the fair a perfect family weekend outing.

The fair runs Saturday, April 6 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is free. Please bring along canned goods to donate to the Surrey Food Bank.
