Wintergreen Holiday Market

The Wintergreen Holiday Market transforms Huntsville Botanical Garden into a cozy indoor shopping destination where families can get a head start on their holiday gift lists while supporting local artisans and small businesses. This festive market spreads across three heated indoor venues — the Propst Guest Center, Isenberg Grand Hall, and Carriage House — where you'll find handcrafted goods, botanical-inspired décor, festive treats, and unique gifts that go beyond what you'd find at typical big-box stores. It's the kind of relaxed, browse-at-your-own-pace event where kids can tag along without the chaos of crowded malls, and parents can actually enjoy the shopping experience. The market runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on November 1, 2026, and requires a shopping pass for entry, which costs just $5 per person (members and non-members alike). This pass gets you into the market itself but doesn't include access to the Garden grounds — though Garden members can still explore the outdoor spaces as part of their membership benefits. Since everything happens indoors, weather won't be a concern, making it a reliable outing regardless of what Mother Nature has in store for early November. Bring the whole family for this all-ages event, as children can enjoy spotting creative treasures while you shop from local and regional makers. Your purchases directly support small businesses, and proceeds from the market benefit the Garden's educational programs and conservation work. Consider bringing a tote bag for your finds and maybe a snack budget for any culinary treats you discover along the way.
