Puzzle Sundays
THIRD SUNDAY OF EACH MONTH
Puzzle Sunday is a free, ongoing community event held at the Kensington Farmers’ Market and is now in its fourth year.
This simple yet meaningful activity fosters connection, conversation, and shared experience among community members of all ages. Participants are invited to bring puzzles to share or take one home, creating a spirit of generosity and exchange.
In a time when many people feel disconnected. Puzzle Sundays provides an uplifting and inclusive environment within the market. It encourages people to slow down, engage with one another, and experience a sense of belonging.
