Artisans galore...here are just a few...

Brenda Halton is a local potter with real talent. She enjoys her time working at her wheel and has made some beautiful pieces for the People's Market...her pottery is a favorite and very reasonably priced.
Alpaca hats hand knit, felted and embellished by Ellie Hunter, partner  at Angel Tree Farm Alpacas. Ellie enjoys knitting and uses the feathers from around the farm (as well as antique pins) to decorate her unique hats . They are a favorite at the Ithaca Farmer's Market in Dec.!


Trisha Firth of "Creative Touch" has a real gift with these gorgeous one of a kind chopping boards. Each is crafted with hand painted pedastals and sure to be loved by a "big cheese" that you know!

These fine bags are handmade by Jane Hunter. She has a real talent in working with textiles. The bags are hand stitched, lined and ready to tote your important belongings around! She also makes the handy Purposeful Pouches for cell phones,
i pods...and make great presentation for gift cards and little trinkets! She enjoys working with specialty fabrics and good old fashioned ties! The zebra print has an old tie of my dads! They are one of a kind!
