It's your last chance on Thursday (Sept. 12) to get local produce and crafts at the High River Farmer's Market.

The market is run by Inclusion Foothills and executive director Orvella Small says it's been a great season.

"Basically, every week we'd have at least a thousand people come down the street within the first hour so that's very positive for all the vendors that came to our town to be able to put on this farmer's market."

You'll need to be there within the first hour as some popular vendors can run out of product.

There were also some new vendors this year.

"Vendors would have been probably very close to the same as last year. We had a few new ones which was really positive to be able to bring to the community. And then, as far as numbers go, it's pretty steady about the same each time."

Small says she excited for next season already and is so very grateful to the shoppers and vendors filling up High River's downtown.

"Thank you to all of the vendors who came each week, all of the shoppers who came down, rain or shine people were there. And the street was busy, and it was really exciting at least once a week to see the street just a hoping with people."

The market runs from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. on 4th Avenue SW in downtown High River.
