We’re excited to welcome New Hampshire author Matt Forrest Esenwine to the Candia Farmers Market! Stop by to meet Matt, chat about his books, and celebrate the joy of storytelling.
Matt’s journey started in radio, writing commercials, news, and comedy—while always holding onto his love of poetry (his first poem was published in high school!). That passion led to award-winning work, including a Pushcart Prize nomination and the MacGregor Poetry Prize.
Today, he’s the author of more than a dozen children’s books, including Flashlight Night (named one of the New York Public Library’s Best Books for Kids) and I Am Today, winner of the 2023 New Hampshire Literary Award for Outstanding Children’s Literature.
Stop by, say hello, and discover a new favorite story!
We’re excited to welcome Sweet Dreams Bakehouse from Derry to the Candia Farmers Market!
This women-owned bakery creates small-batch, from-scratch treats that are as meaningful as they are delicious. Founded by Linda, Sweet Dreams Bakehouse grew from a love of baking, gathering people together, and giving back to the community. That mission is at the heart of everything they do—donating 50% of proceeds to local food pantries, soup kitchens, and organizations that support people facing food insecurity.
With the support of her family, Linda has built something truly special—blending beautiful, homemade desserts with a purpose that goes far beyond the kitchen.
Stop by their booth, treat yourself, and support a business that’s making a real difference right here in our community.
