2025 Merry Market Give-Away

Now in its third year, the Merry Market Give-Away began as an idea from Dry Branch Hollow to give back to the community that supports the Myersville Farmers Market and to help kick off the indoor season with a little extra holiday cheer. At each market in November and December 2025, we’re celebrating our shoppers by offering a chance to win local treasures from our talented farmers and artisans, all while supporting a meaningful cause.

How to Enter

Customers can earn raffle entries in two ways during the November and December markets:

1. Pet Supply Donations – Bring any pet supply item to the market. Each market day you donate earns one raffle entry (donating on multiple market dates earns multiple entries; multiple items on the same day count as one entry).

   1. Consider donating pet food, collars, leashes, clothing, toys, etc.  No medications, sheets, blankets, or towels, please!

2. Vendor Stamp Game – Pick up a game card from any vendor. Make purchases at different vendor booths to collect stamps. Customers who collect at least five stamps on a single market date earn one raffle entry.

A maximum of two entries per market day is allowed, for a total of six entries over the season.  All entries are subject to our official Contest Rules — please review before entering. 

Raffle tickets will include your name, phone number, and email address. By entering, you agree to be added to the Myersville Farmers Market Community Newsletter (you can unsubscribe at any time).

Prizes

Each week, we’ll showcase a variety of festive prizes, from gift certificates to handmade items and specialty treats from our local vendors on social media.  Not all prizes will be spotlighted. Winners are drawn at random at 11 AM on December 20. You do not need to be present to win.  

Prizes may be picked up at the market between 11:00 and 11:30 AM on December 20. Any unclaimed prizes after this will be available at Town Hall during regular business hours starting December 22. Prizes not claimed by January 2, 2026 will be returned to the market for a raffle in January 2026.

Holiday Giving with Pet Donations

This year, pet supply donations will go directly to Claudia Prather, a longtime supporter of our market and dedicated advocate for animals in need. Claudia will decide how to use the items — either personally for pets under her care or by passing them along to other animal support organizations. If Claudia has made a difference in your life, feel free to include a thank-you note expressing your appreciation.

Why We Give Back

The Merry Market Give-Away is our way of saying thank you for shopping local, supporting artisans and farmers, and helping build a thriving community. Your participation not only gives you a chance to win something special but also spreads generosity and cheer throughout the season.
