Things To Do
The Upper Valley Artist & Farmers Market is open every Sunday at either their Mesa St. location or in the Substation on Sunset Dr. The market is held at Mesa Plaza the first two Sundays of the month and at The Substation the last two. Both locations host some of El Paso’s most talented vendors. Established in 2017, this market’s goal is to highlight local makers, curators, bakers, and artisans all while striving to create a safe and friendly atmosphere for them to showcase their work. Can’t make it to the market? Visit their online market!
Here are a few vendors you won’t want to miss:
Don’t let the name fool you, Weirdo Beardo Jerky also packages vegan jerky - a little something for everyone! Their beef jerky is cut thick and made from a variety of Mexican carne seca while their vegan jerky is made from eggplants and has a crisp potato chip like bite to it. Although available in a variety of flavors, we recommend the Ghost Pepper and Green Chili flavors.
Don’t forget about your furry friends! Pawpy Love offers pet bandanas, bowties, and other items for pups of all shapes and sizes. One visit to this booth and we are sure you won’t leave empty handed! We couldn’t keep our hands off the hoodies, jackets, and dresses. For those that can’t make it to the market you can find Pawpy Love on Etsy as well.
Specializing in local raw honey, Buzzbee Honey Company also sells three varieties of soap containing local honey, raw honey, oatmeal and honey, and wildflower. This delicious honey is a must have anytime of the year especially cold and flu season. What a natural way to feel better! Follow the aroma of the soaps when looking for their booth!
