On October 3rd, Peaceacre joined the other vendors of the 10th St. Community Farmer's Market at "Apple Days," Lamar's annual fall festival set up all around our historic downtown square. Georgous fall colors were everywhere, the weather was great, and people turned out in huge numbers.
The bravest amongst the 10th St. Farmer's Market vendors plan to continue on at the Moore Pavillion well into November - but for Peaceacre, the cold weather means we're moving our operation INDOORS!
This has been the first year for the 10th St. Community Farmer's Market, and the first year we've sold our handmade soaps and herbal products in a public venue. It has been a fabulous year, for the Market and for Peaceacre. Lots of folks have asked if they'll be able to find us after the market closes for the season. We WILL be continuing all winter long! We found a great studio space upstairs in the Arts Council building on the NW corner of the square, and have set up shop. "Apple Days" pretty much wiped out our on-hand stock, but I am busy in the studio creating new batches of all of the favorites and most requested items, and coming up with a few new suprises, as well. We have also created a "store" page (see the link in the "my pages" section of the right hand menu bar of this page) where you can see the various products that we make. At this point, we are not set up for on-line sales, but we're working on that.
If you don't live in Lamar, and you just can't live without our stuff, email me! I'll work something out!
I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been so very supportive of Peaceacre in our first year. We have met so many wonderful people, and made lots of new friends.
