Tea Haus x Adorn by Pree

Adorn by Pree made the cutest polymer clay pins to celebrate Tea Haus’ 25th anniversary!

This collab is near and dear to our hearts because three of our market vendors have come together to make this sentimental pin possible. Tea Haus was the inspiration, Guindon Creations produced the logo stamp, and Pree handcrafted the pins. Pick up a keepsake pin today and know that your hard-earned dollars are building community and supporting small creators!

OUTDOOR FARMERS MARKET

As the weather gets cooler, we said goodbye to some our regular season farmers market vendors. We are now entering our extended season taking place 8am to 1pm through the month of November and 9am to 1pm through the month of December.

See below who you can find outside on the Rotary Square for the next couple months! All of our vendors at the Farmers Market grow it, raise it, bake it or make it!
