Ritch Taylor makes cutting/serving boards and unique but functional furniture. He tries to make every piece as a unique, one-of-a kind or, at the very least, a very small batch item.

His passion is using obscure wood species yet still see and adore the natural beauty of common Red Oak. From cutting boards to coaster, you will only find one-of-a-kind items made by Ritch!

He started taking my woodworking seriously about three years ago, but have been working with wood for 11+ years. In his spare time, he plays the guitar, but no singing for this guy!

Tara's story of creating Blessed Hearts Co. is truly inspirational. Despite being a mother of
four young girls, she found a way to pursue her passion for crocheting and started her own
business. Her journey, from learning to crochet from her grandmother to finding solace and
creativity in this craft after the birth of her first child, is truly inspiring. It's amazing to see
how she turned her love for crocheting into a business specializing in cozy, comfortable
yarn products. Tara's dedication and creativity serve as a reminder that it's possible to
pursue your passions and turn them into something meaningful, even amidst the
responsibilities of parenthood.

Fair-Thee-Well was started six years ago by Kathy and her daughter Madilyn when
Madilyn was pregnant with Solomon. Fun fact- the entire men’s product line is named
after Solomon! While pregnant, Madilyn was concerned about what she was putting into
her body through her skin, which is the body's largest organ. They created all-natural
products to replace products containing harmful ingredients that can disrupt the
endocrine system. Fast forward to today, Kathy is a solo act as Madilyn’s career as an
esthetician has blossomed, and lets face it, having a kindergartner keeps you busy as
well. In addition to the line of all-natural body products, Kathy has incorporated her love
of sewing into the product line to include Ouch Pouches and her beautiful reusable
market canvas bags. These market bags are the perfect replacement for plastic grocery
bags and when you purchase a market bag, not only are you supporting Kathy’s small
business, but you are also supporting the environment.
