Broadway Market

The Broadway Market is this historic market that has been in the neighborhood where my parents and grandparents grew up for decades. It was a flourishing Polish neighborhood back in the 60s and 70s.

In its "hay day", the place would always be buzzing throughout the week. Now the neighborhood has declined and the place almost went under. Yet, a revitalization has emerged (especially for Polish heritage pride) and the Broadway Market at least sees thousands and thousands of people surrounding the Easter season.

Although I don't have memories of visiting during my childhood, the items each vendor is selling usually strikes such a sentiment in my heart from many celebrations growing up.


























I am so glad that we created this tradition for us after Tessa was born. It really makes the season feel exciting and has created beautiful Good Friday memories.

I’m Stephanie, the mind and Momma behind The Heirloom Family. I created this blog as a way to capture the magic of our family and the beauty of every day slow and simple living. I also hope it serves as an inspiration to you as well.

Nestled in our little corner of the Earth in Western New York, I am lucky enough to share my home with my husband and our daughter, along with 4 cheerful cats.

We strive for a wholesome life, one that is slow and steady. I want to breathe it in, this time we have, and I might just be lucky enough to see the magic in it all.

There are so many things in life that I love – nature. crochet. photography. gardening. cooking. faith. honey. reading. sunsets and sunrises. flowers. ballet. enchantment. Dave Matthews Band. the moon. rainbows. babywearing. lavender and sandalwood. celebrations. music. hippie. poetry. love. the forest. romantic history. cats. dreamcatchers. wool. heritage. family. lilac. red wine. memories.
