Beltrami Electric Cooperative is excited to once again partner with Paul Bunyan Broadcasting to host the Northwoods Maker’s Market, a family-friendly fundraising event supporting the United Way of Bemidji Area. The market will take place Saturday, October 4, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the cooperative’s garage area, located at 4111 Technology Dr NW, Bemidji. 

Featuring more than 80 local vendors, the market offers a wide selection of handmade goods, crafts, and unique gifts perfect for the upcoming holiday season. Shoppers can enjoy browsing an array of one-of-a-kind items while supporting a meaningful cause, as all proceeds from the $1 entry fee (children 12 & under free) and vendor fees will benefit the United Way of Bemidji Area.

“This market is more than just shopping,” said Angela Lyseng, communications specialist at Beltrami Electric. “It’s an opportunity for our community to come together, enjoy local talent and creativity, and make a real impact through their support of United Way programs.”

In addition to unique shopping, attendees can enjoy:

• Local food trucks like Kazo Concessions

• A kids’ activity zone featuring pumpkin decorating, games, and more

• A fun fall photo booth to capture seasonal memories

Beltrami Electric Cooperative invites residents and visitors alike to shop, play, and give back at the Northwoods Maker’s Market. For more information, visit the event page on Facebook.
