Kind Meds October Market Recap

The Kind Meds October Market had a little bit of everything: local vendors, cannabis brands, food, music, customers, staff, dogs, community support, and yes, even a very Arizona weather moment.

Before the event even got fully rolling, a dust storm blew through Mesa, emergency weather alerts started going off, and rain came down right as vendors were getting set up. Not exactly the calm fall market vibe anyone planned for.

But the community made the best of it.

Some vendors had to cover products, move things around, protect phones and displays, and wait out the weather. A few booths definitely got rained on, but most of the vendors stuck it out. Once the weather settled down, people still came through, walked the market, grabbed food, checked out the vendors, and helped turn the day into something memorable.

A Big Thank You to Everyone Who Stuck It Out

Huge thank you to every vendor, staff member, customer, friend, dog, and community member who came out for the October Market.

Events like this take a lot of work even when the weather cooperates. This one came with a little extra chaos, but the way everyone adapted, helped each other, and kept the energy going says a lot.

From vendors protecting their tables during the rain to customers stopping by after the storm passed, we appreciate everyone who helped make the day happen.

Vendors, Food, Music, Local Artists & More

The October Market brought together a mix of cannabis vendors, local makers, food vendors, music, accessories, and community pop-ups.

Guests had a chance to check out cannabis brands, grab food, browse local goodies, visit The Rolling Joint bus, meet vendors, and spend time with the Kind Meds community.

Market Moments We Loved

Even with the weather doing the most, there were still so many great moments throughout the day.

We loved seeing vendors connect with customers, staff helping keep things moving, dogs making their market appearances, food vendors serving up good stuff, and people stopping to shop, talk, laugh, and support local.

The Rolling Joint bus brought its own vibe to the event, and the mix of cannabis vendors, local makers, food, jewelry, crafts, and community booths gave people plenty to explore once the skies cleared.

The weather rolled in, vendors adapted, customers still came through, and the day turned into a story we will definitely remember.
