Hallowingzzz   What, you may ask, is “Hallowingzzz”? Definitely one of, if not the most unique vendor to join us for our Anniversary event. Hallowingzzz is a Juniata County based breeder of pet chickens and fowl.   Looking for some egg layers for a fresh breakfast?  How about a few fancy feathered friends to decorate the yard?  What about some major tick control and a feathered alarm system? Or maybe you already have a flock and want to add something new?  Hallowingzzz has got you covered!  They offer turkeys, pigeons, chickens, and ticks’ worst nightmare- guinea fowl!  In addition, particular attention is paid to breeds like Silkies, Turkens (naked neck chickens), Old English Game Bantams, Sumatras, Frizzles and several others.  You can’t miss this vendor! Stop by to meet Hallowingzzz and some of their available chicks...You never know, maybe some music loving adult birds will be there too!

Artifacts N Relics

One Shilling Ring Artifacts N Relics joining The Juniata Valley Winery Anniversary Event on Aug 12 Meet the artist: Artifacts N Relics We look forward to welcoming central Pennsylvania based Artifacts N Relics to our Anniversary event.  Owner and artist Mike is a former student of graphic design at Berks Technical Institute and believes that art can  provide a small escape from the real world and can make us smile, even if just for a minute.  Mike embraced his artistic side as a child and by fine-tuning his techniques and continuing to always learn new skills, he has been able to  turn his passion into a career.  His art is inspired by his raw materials: vintage and forgotten items such as coins, watch parts, ink pen nibs, and even bullet casings. He breathes new life into these often cast aside bits and pieces by turning them into one of a kind  jewelry and accoutrements. With a website that boasts collections such as “Ancient, Steampunk, Bullet Casing Jewelry, and Vintage”

Linda Rush, the artist and owner of Sands and Lace Pottery had a small town Pennsylvania Dutch upbringing. Linda was introduced to clay art and pottery while she was working as a middle school teacher and gymnastics coach in the eighties, when the art form allowed her a peaceful break.  Once she retired from teaching she was able to pursue her passion for pottery and sculpting, and so Sands and Lace was formed.  In addition to jewelry and decorative pieces-some of which even include texturing from her Grandma’s doilies- Linda creates functional stoneware finished with food safe glazes.  Currently residing in the Gulf Coast City of Sarasota, FL, Linda’s artwork is a mixture of Country/Modern with a beachy flair.   Be sure to stop by our Anniversary celebration on  August 12, 2017  to help us welcome Linda and see what Sands and Lace Pottery has to offer! You can also see some examples of her work on Facebook.
