Stittsville’s Carp Road Flea Market is closing its doors this fall after more than 50 years in business. The flea market on Carp Road is open every Sunday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. In a post on Facebook, officials announced “with heavy hearts” that the flea market will close at the end of September. “After over 50 years in business, due to many reasons, Stittsville’s locally owned and operated, Kondruss Gallery/Stittsville’s Carp Road Flea Market/Barbie Museum will be closing its doors,” said the post, signed by the Stittsville’s Carp Road Flea Market Vendor Family. “From all of the vendors (past and present) and the owners, we want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for supporting local and keeping the Flea Market life alive and well! In times like these Flea Markets are needed more than ever and we all became a family!” Indoor vendors will be on site every Sunday until the end of September, while the outdoor market will remain open until the end of October. The flea market says vendors will be offering discounts on merchandise until the closure this fall.
