Weekend Events: Live Music, Craft Fairs, Farmers' Markets

November has arrived, with its cinnamon-scented sweetness and apple-cider smile. The holidays are approaching and the year is winding down. Take a breath and savor the delights of the coming season this weekend by enjoying some live local music or stocking the pantry with some hearty vegetables from the farmers' market. 

Contra Costa County residents are getting crafty this weekend and selling their homemade goods around town, which makes for a great opportunity to pick up some unique and adorable gifts. Or, just buy yourself a treat and support someone else's creativity.
