A
Hidden Surprise
In its century-old dairy barn, our farm opens a seasonal
farmcraft and gift shop, called Holiday Gatherings.
The gift shop is full to the rafters for your browsing pleasure.
Christmas ornaments, hand crafts, candles, holiday home items,
unique herbal crafts and baked goods all you could
possibly need for your holiday gatherings!
Weve filled our Holiday Gatherings gift shop with romantic
décor, clever gifts for the hostess, boss and teacher,
and some new delights for your Christmas decorating. We have
slightly enlarged the shop to cram in more goodies than ever!
History
Gathering
on their family holiday traditions, the Joneses began the
Farm Gift shop in 1996 after many years of requests from visitors
during the Christmas tree harvesting season.
Years ago in the 1950's, Grandma Joan Jones operated a Christmas
shop on the Homestead porch, which according to most accounts,
was magical. The reopened shop, Holiday Gatherings, is based
upon the same philosophy of Grandma Joan: feature handmade
items (especially those of the "crafty" Jones family),
farm harvest products, vintage oddities, and nostalgic keepsakes
just like the Jones family uses and loves. Members of the
farm staff make other handcrafted items. The farm produces
items made from the bounty of its own gardens. Herbal items
and painted furniture, created by Cindy Vitko, are special
features.
