Springtime at the Farm

It is time to begin making your plans to join us here on our farm on Saturday, May 2, from 10-2 at 493 Tonkin Road, Indiana, PA 15701. Our farm events are my favorite events. I love welcoming my talented vendor friends and my soap family to the place I love best. This year, we have a few new faces to add to our vendor lineup, along with your friendly favorites. It's hard to believe that we are already preparing for the market season, but ready or not, here it comes!

This year, our vendor friends are as follows:

Ageless Iron- the talented Jessica Birge will be here with her metal art, custom orders, and signage. 

Amanda Jo's Flower Cart- Amanda will be here with her beautiful bouquets, fresh flowers, and single stems. 

*Aunt Julia's Donuts- my dear friend, Julia, doesn't need an introduction. She makes the best donuts around. Julia is a tentative yes, but it will all depend on her coverage at the bakery. Fingers crossed she can join us. 

Ashleigh Bowman Artwork- The very talented Ashleigh Bowman will have her one-of-a-kind artwork and prints available for purchase. This lovely young woman is next-level talented. 

Broken Locust- Pat and Sherry will have their delicious herbal creations, from hand-blended teas to delightful herbal blends for your culinary needs, to their delicious dip mixes. We highly recommend Broken Locust!

Canine Confections-The one and only dog treat queen, Tricia Brown, will be here with her healthy, handmade dog treats. Tricia's treats are Buster-approved. He's a bit of a treat snob and only likes Aunt Tricia's treats. If you love your canine bestie as I do, you need to introduce them to Canine Confections. 

Color To Dye For- My friends Jennifer and Jan will be here with their unique jewelry creations and hand-dyed apparel. 

Edbie Inspired Photography- My dear friend Debbie will have her nature-inspired artwork and unique prints on display for your shopping pleasure. Debbie's artwork would make a lovely Mother's Day gift for the bird lover or nature lover in your life. 

Eden Apiaries- Donna will be here with delicious, fresh, local honey. 

Kenna's Creations- My talented young friend, Kenna, will join us with her amazing food truck offering acia bowls, coffee, and custom seasonal drinks. I am so impressed with this young woman and her story. 

Little Garden Kitchen-My sweet and saucey friend Stephanie will join us with her amazing food truck. I am so thrilled to introduce you all to her and her amazing gourmet food creations. Seriously, she is the reason I look forward to breakfast at Ligonier Country Market. I believe you will be as impressed with her and her food as I am. 

Lone Oak Farms- My friends from Lone Oak will be here with their wide array of baked goods and homemade creations. They offer the best pepperoni rolls and cinnamon rolls around. We adore our friends from Lone Oak and are grateful for their time in supporting us. 

Missy LaLa's Biscotti-Guys, for real, Missy makes the best biscotti I have ever eaten! I am thrilled she is joining us for our spring market. Her biscotti and a cup of coffee are my favorite treat. 

Mrs. Nut Roll- Sharon and Chris are two of my absolute favorite people. Not only are they the most kind, supportive, good-hearted people I know, but they also make a killer nut roll! We are always honored when they can join us for our day at the farm. 

Pamela Jean Werner Creations- My dear friend, Pam, will be here with her handwoven scarves, shawls, and wraps. I can't say enough about these versatile creations. They can be dressed up for an evening out or dressed down for a comfortable, casual look. I can't wait to see what Pam has created for us over the winter. Pam's scarves and wraps make lovely, unique, and useful Mother's Day gifts. 

PrAiry Girl- My sweet friend, Carlene, will be here with her handmade fibers, alpaca socks, and a variety of useful, creative offerings. Make sure to chat with Carlene. She is an endless well of knowledge and so very interesting.

Scents by Stacy-My talented friend Stacy will be here with her beautiful and clean-scented candles. Stacy is my go-to girl for unique, beautifully scented, clean, and non-toxic candles.

I'm very excited to introduce you to my delightful friends and their lovely small businesses. Everyone on this list is someone I not only enjoy and care for, but respect and admire. I'm greatly looking forward to opening our farm and welcoming our friends and soap family to join us for the day. As The Bibbed Wonder likes to say, "You won't find better company." Mark your calendar, call your friends, gather your crew, and join us for a day of good food, great company, fresh farm air, and a wide array of small businesses. With Mother's Day the following weekend, you have the perfect opportunity to find the perfect, unique, high-quality gift for all the special women in your life, or maybe a treat for yourself. Thank you in advance for supporting small businesses. We appreciate you more than you will ever know.
