Pat's Baked Goods
Our
longtime customer, Patricia Trimble, has recently been
certified to sell her wonderfully nutritious (and tasty)
baked goods. She makes whole wheat, spelt and gluten
free items and uses organic ingredients when she can.
Give her pizza a try!
Alternative Rustic Forest Products
Our neighbor, Gary Rorhbach, hand makes furniture like
this doll (or cat) bed and stool. Each piece he makes is
created to preserve the integrity of the wood so
each is a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Basket Creations by Natalie
Our friend,
Natalie Smith, has been hand weaving baskets and doilies
for over 15 years and is a member of the Reading Berks
Guild of Craftsmen. Her baskets aren't just nice to look
at, they're functional, too. She makes many styles and
sizes, even a lazy susan.
Good Beeswax Ornaments
Our cousins,
Rick and Ginny Good, from Adamstown have been molding
beeswax for several years. They use pure beeswax to make
all sorts of ornaments like the sheep and rooster above
as well as some others. Beeswax has a high melting point
so don't be afraid of hanging it from a window or any
other place that gets warm.
The
Inside of the
Summerhouse, Now Our Store
The
Summerhouse was built around 1750 and was used as a
kitchen during the summer months to keep the main house
from getting too hot. We removed the fireplace during
the restoration because it was in such bad shape. The
very small second floor of the building was used to hang
smoked meats.
