Happy Friday, everyone! 🌞

🥕 The Haines Farmers Market returns this Saturday! Stop by to support local vendors, pick up fresh produce, handcrafted goods, and connect with friends and neighbors as another market season begins.

💃 The Chilkat Dancers welcome both community members and visitors to their Dance on the Dock this Sunday at 1:00 p.m. It's a wonderful opportunity to experience and celebrate local culture.

The bears this year are coming out plump. We should have some ginormous ones once fall hits! We love our bears healthy so make sure you keep a good distance and don’t disturb their feeding. We had parked and watched this one for a while until he made his way to us.
