This morning I went to the Artisan Market on Teeples Pond. It was delightful to be outside in the fresh air strolling from booth to booth looking at interesting wares. It is on a farm surrounded by soybean fields in Milford, Indiana. This event is held once a year in September.
Our friend who is a woodworker had many items for sale.
The wooded area with a pond is beautiful. We ate a "second" breakfast around 9:30 after greeting our friend. My husband enjoyed the sausage gravy over biscuits; I had a Danish pastry. They also have a lunch menu. There is a restroom attached to the food building.
Even if a friend or family member has little interest in shopping, there were nice places to sit and enjoy the scenery while waiting for the shopper to finish.
The sticks and brown bags of s'mores ingredients didn't have many takers this morning, but maybe later in the day people might want to snack.
There was a nice variety of items to buy.
These thunder gourds were unlike anything I had ever seen. The gourds were nicely decorated but had a metal coil that went up into the bottom which had been replaced by drumhead material; when the coil was moved, a loud reverberation was heard.
There were metal decorations, carved birds, jewelry, tie-dyed T-shirts, ink pens turned on a lathe that I didn't take photos of. Tomorrow there will be a few vendors that were not there today. You can read about some of the vendors on the link I provided at the top of this post.
