Kim and Trevor Lambe staff their tent at the Victorian Christmas Market in Charlottetown on Nov. 27, 2022. The couple took over the Albany-based business when Trevor's father died two years ago.CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I.

There were about 50 vendors at the 2022 market, including artisans, food producers and hot food vendors, as well as live music, horse and wagon rides and Santa and Mrs. Claus. “It’s nice keeping the business in the family,” said Trevor. “Two of the employees have been there for 30 years, so, they’re kind of the backbone of the business.

The cost of supplies has doubled for the concrete company recently.
