Holiday Craft and Art Fair...

Early Morning Harvest grown at the "Seeds of Hope"
Saturday morning was a cold and wet day. With Mother Nature not on our side we had a lot of rain and cool temperatures.  With our wreaths, pumpkin bread and hot coffee we were able to draw some folks over to the booth and get some info out about Seeds of Hope Community Garden.   Our delicious prior hit pumpkin breads made by Rebecca Fischer our Garden ...Cook was a hit once again.  It really is a proud moment when we tell folks that that delicious bite was made from vegetables grown in the Garden.

                       Even with the rain and cool weather these two are always good for a smile!

Stopping by the booth to learn more about the Garden!


Day two was a much better turnout even with the sunshine never peeking its way around the foggy and cool but dry day. Hot coffee, tea and cocoa was served at our booth to all who looked a bit chilly.  

We are really looking forward to seeing some of the those new faces at the Garden in the coming weeks.  
Fresh Nutmeg for your coffee?

This block long Arts Festival was a great variety of artists and food vendors.  There was crack conch, ribs in ten different flavors, chicken on a stick, gyros and so much more to mention.
Town Manager Maria Davis and Commissioner Osterman.

The vendors ranged from handmade wooden transforming wall decor to table top bowls, blown glass, hand crafted and sculptured wrought iron statues and beautiful jewelry were just a few of the wonderful original art forms.
