Manchaug First is a 501(c)3 nonprofit founded by Luke M. Vaillancourt and Jamie Burke in 2024, driven by a shared vision to bring more community events to Manchaug. Following two successful years of the Manchaug Stroll, they recognized the need for even more opportunities to gather and celebrate the community. Expanding beyond winter, they were inspired to create a vibrant outdoor artisan market—one that honors the heart of Manchaug in Sutton.
Join us on Saturday, June 28, from 10 AM to 5 PM (rain date of Sunday, May 29) for the Manchaug First Faire at Manchaug Common. This free, public event will feature over 50 makers and vendors, with a strong emphasis on supporting local businesses. You'll find handcrafted goods, fresh produce from local farms, delicious treats, and more.
Adding to the festive atmosphere of live music and entertainment, enjoy lively food trucks, an outdoor bar at District V House. Inspired by the spirit of traditional French fairs, the Manchaug First Faire pays tribute to the region’s rich French-Canadian heritage while celebrating Sutton’s creative and agricultural roots.
Come and experience a unique, community-centered event that brings together the best of local craftsmanship, food, and culture—all in the heart of Manchaug!
