On a bright and clear August 5th, my older sibling and I embarked on a delightful adventure to the "Little Tree Market" held annually at the Little Tree Garden in Sam Phran District, Nakhon Pathom Province. Eagerly anticipating this yearly event, we marked our calendars well in advance to ensure we wouldn't miss it. As the day arrived, we set off on our journey, knowing that if we missed this year's market, we would have to wait another entire year for the next opportunity.

To reach the garden market and park your car, follow these instructions: Drive along Phetkasem Road (towards Nakhon Pathom) and cross Bridge No. 5 (Om Noi). After passing Big C Om Noi on your left, continue driving until you see the PTT Honda gas station. Turn left into Soi Thesaban 13 (Wat Om Noi Soi) and drive straight for about 2 kilometers. You will see Wat Om Noi on your left. Park your car at the temple's parking lot and take a local van to the market. This is necessary because the alley leading to the market or Little Tree restaurant is narrow and small. If everyone drove their cars, there would be traffic jams and no parking available. We followed the instructions and took the van from Wat Om Noi, which quickly brought us to the garden market. This was a convenient option, as driving and parking would have been difficult and time-consuming.

This year, the event was held over two days, as usual, on August 5th and 6th, 2017, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. This year marked the 10th anniversary of the event. The event featured a wide variety of handmade goods and products, including naturally dyed clothing, embroidered fabrics, ceramics, jewelry, fresh produce, Thai desserts, home decor items, and much more. There were also workshops available for children, with activities tailored to their interests and abilities.

As soon as you get off the van, shops are waiting for you from the start.

There are many shops and adorable items, but I couldn't capture everything. The atmosphere was lovely, warm, and friendly, with vendors dressed adorably. If you haven't been, you should go; you might get hooked. It might be a bit hot, so perhaps December would be better with a cool breeze. It's a great place for all ages, from friends to couples to families with children. You can enjoy activities together. Follow their Facebook page for event dates (www.facebook.com/littletreegarden). It's a relaxed, natural market perfect for a relaxing time with loved ones.
