Posted on December 5, 2014 by admin — No Comments ↓

I know we’ve been posting about our Holiday Party Craft Market vendors all week, but we are just SO EXCITED about tonight’s party! Still on the fence about coming? These last two vendors might tip the scales towards “Yes!”:

Local artist and herbalist Nancy Anderson will have both art and herbal preparations on display. Check out a sample of her art below and her recipe for “Tick Juice” here.

 

Give A Dog A Bone is a bakery with a mission. All proceeds made from the sale of their all natural homemade dog treats are donated to the Soi Dog Foundation, an organization working to end Thailand’s illegal dog meat trade. Marjon Tondravi, the owner of Give A Dog A Bone, does additional fundraising for Soi Dog by selling custom collars! Check out some of the goods she’ll be selling at our party below:

 

See you at 7!
