We have breakfast and lunch being made fresh to order. Hot coffee and rumor has it that there will be cold brew coffee this weekend. Olive oil, jams, and maple syrup from just up the road.

Jewelry to compliment your dining outfit and even a spoon or fork to eat with. Fiber arts to wear, keep you warm, keep you safe (masks), dry your dishes and put your plates on. Bread, oh my God bread, of the sourdough variety. Live music every week and historical craft demonstrations. And you can say hello to our sheep and our chickens.
