Vendors from all over Ontario are given the opportunity to sell their handmade crafts – everything from needlework to jewellery, garden and patio accessories and of course, the ever popular scrumptious homemade treats. Coyle’s anticipates hosting over 40 vendors again this year many of whom will also attend the Fall Craft show in August.
