Portland . Portsmouth . Edgecomb

So... some of you read the other day's email and thought we were shutting down for good. Apologies for the scare.

I saw some really beautiful moments up in Edgecomb and I'm always in a somber mood up there -- a lot of history for me -- so I thought I'd share. However, rumors of our demise have been greatly exaggerated.

We are working on having new pottery. Yes, I said it out loud. I can't disclose much at this point because it's still under development, but I'm hopeful for the future -- and I hope you'll join us there too.

In the meantime, Portland is packed to the rafters. Portsmouth is beautiful as ever. And we just started carrying something new that we're genuinely excited about.

Here's what the galleries look like today:

✶ ✶ ✶

Inside our Portland gallery -- fully stocked with handmade pottery, jewelry, and art

And Edgecomb? Not closing -- just changing. The space is becoming our Artist Collective, and it's filling up fast. It's going to be something special.

12+ artists already joining, with more inquiring every day.

NEW IN THE GALLERY

Carolyn's Farm Kitchen

We just started carrying Carolyn's Farm Kitchen baking mixes at Portland and Portsmouth. Blueberry pie bars, fresh peach bread, summer fruit crumble, herb biscuits, pancakes. Real ingredients, nothing weird. They sit right next to the pottery. Which is exactly where they belong.

I've tried many baking mixes, but these are the best! Quality ingredients, and it shows. Almost as good as from scratch, and my wife is a baker!

Come see us.
