Welcome to HTG Woodcrafts
Well, all craft shows have been canceled for 2020 but we were fortunate to be able to sell our goods at Josh’s Farmers Market for the second half of this crazy year. We cannot express how grateful we are to Josh for accommodating us.
Saturday November 21st was our final market day at Josh’s for 2020 and what a great day it was. The temp warmed from a chilly 37* at 7:15 to a balmy 62* by 3:00. As always, we met some new customers and were visited by some long time friends of ours. Helen and I are so very appreciative to all of you who supported us in this crazy 2020 year as well as in years past.
This last day was somewhat bittersweet for me personally. From the day, almost 4 years ago, that Josh gave us the go-ahead to sell our goods at the market, I have always considered it to be our home base. A place where we were welcomed by the great team members of Josh’s and the fabulous customers of the market as well. As some of you might know already, Josh, Nick and the team are moving to a new location less than a mile from the existing location. Bigger property( more parking, hopefully) and more space for Josh to spread out all the great produce, baked goods, seafood and all the rest of the market’s offerings. After checking with Josh, I’m confident there will be space for the outside vendors like HTG Woodcrafts, Revron Designs, Sue’s Soaps, Toby Chapin Pottery, and more. And I would be irresponsible if I didn’t mention Granny’s Donuts, who could make the best donuts I’ve ever eaten.
Please check back for more info on the upcoming 2021 season. If you know of a craft show that you liked in year’s past, please let us know. We are always looking for new venues to peddle our wares.
New items are being listed daily, please check back often. Thanks.
