Wallingford Village Market and Mamma Tamara hold grand opening celebration

Views of the new Wallingford Village Market, located at 15 S. Main Street, Wallingford.

Saturday, Oct. 26, from noon to 7 p.m. —WALLINGFORD—Celebrate The Wallingford Village Market and Mamma’s at the Market’s joint grand opening this Saturday. The event, held at the Village Market’s location on Main Street, just south of the intersection of Routes 7 and 140, announces the joining of two local establishments. Attendees can enjoy food samples, meet local suppliers, and taste some of Mamma Tamara’s Italian specialties throughout the day.

Wallingford Village Market, a project spearheaded by owner Monica DeLorme, aims to offer a community hub for groceries, fresh produce, and prepared foods. Since its soft opening in August, the market has become a key destination in Wallingford, providing locals and visitors with healthy options, including grab-and-go sandwiches and gourmet pizza nights.

“We’ve heard from so many people how much having a market in town means to them,” DeLorme said. “We’re excited to grow and continue offering more products based on community feedback.”

Mamma Tamara, known for her southern Italian cooking, relocated her business into the market’s kitchen, offering favorites such as lasagna, pasta Bolognese, and cheesesteaks. Tamara Musto is eager to see familiar faces and welcome new customers to her new home at the market.

The grand opening will feature Italian food samples, exclusive deals, and the opportunity to get to know the faces behind the two businesses. Both the Wallingford Village Market and Mamma’s at the Market are open Monday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
