While we are gearing up for the Muggles Market, we don’t want to forget anything!
The Muggles Market is open to the public, and admission is only a canned good or non-perishable item to benefit Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina! Be sure to remember your donation, or a cash donation of $2. (Cash donations help offset operational costs for the Muggles Market, so we still want to provide plenty of support to SHFBM.)

We look forward to having you join us on Saturday, November 3rd at this year’s Muggles Market.
