NEWTON, MA — All Over Newton will host a Thanksgiving Market on Tuesday, Nov. 22 from 12-4 p.m. at the Allen Center in West Newton.
Ten specialty vendors and a Massachusetts farm will deliver produce, pop-in-the-oven hors d’oeuvres, desserts, locally roasted coffee, honey, jams, hostess gifts, and empanada dinners for the busy nights before Thanksgiving.
There will even be a mobile knife sharpener on site for $10 per knife so cutlery is in tip-top shape for holiday carving.
