The Strathmore Farmers' Market held a special Fall Fair Market over the weekend.
The Motor Products Sports Centre was filled with dozens of vendors and artisans on Saturday (Oct. 5), with hundreds of residents making it out to see what was in store.
One of the booths was held by 3D Wonder Works, a father-son duo that makes 3D-printed knickknacks and toys.
"Seeing the printers around in so many people's houses, I thought it was kind of cool," said Ryan Baker, one of the owners. "I started doing stuff for ourselves and just branched out from there."
Baker has been in business for six months, traveling to fairs and markets in Strathmore and Chestermere to sell their popular products.
"It's been fantastic and a great day," added Baker. "It's kind of fun to be able to show people what these printers can do."

Other booths at the market were selling a variety of items, from fresh fruit and crochet hats to belt buckles, charcuterie boards, and cigar box guitars.
"We get a lot of people because we've been doing it for so long. We have a lot of loyal customers that like to come out and check out the vendors, which is fantastic," said Tracy Yochim, market manager with the Strathmore Farmers' Market.
This is one of three special markets held between the Farmers' Market's summer run, with other events taking place around Christmas and Mother's Day.
"These are people that live and spend money in our community. It's wonderful to support these artisans, and it's a wonderful thing to have in the community, especially with local people," added Yochim.
The Farmers' Market is looking for vendors for the upcoming Christmas Market, and vendors can apply on the market's website.
