First weekend at the Windmill, We welcome pigs








The Windmill is a large outdoor market with Amish influence, although there are more English shops than anything else. Mine included! A friend of mine, Kirstin, has been the main impetus for getting us in to this large market.



This will be an interesting adventure: seeing if our soaps will sell and if we are good sales people!



The first day is typically slow but this year opening day had a good crowd til about 2 p.m. (Then I took a the chance for a quick tour of all the shops!) We did good business. My bggest seller was my Happy Hippy soap -- a blend of patchouli and hempseed oil. Kirstin sold a lot of lotion bars.

I didn't pay as much attention to display as I did product, but it turned out ok

Rooster Hill welcomes pigs!


This weekend also brought the arrival of a pair of 6 week old pigs, both girls and both unnamed so far. They came from a pig farm in Newfield. They quickly got used to their new home, although they are still getting used to us.
