We are excited about starting a new season at the farm and gallery. It is time for us to open our doors again.

And for the second time we are doing it in style with a huge SECONDS sale of my clay work.

The gate will swing open at 2pm on the 2nd of the 2nd month. That’s a no-brainer!
There is lots to look at and lots of great deals. Some pieces are marked down as much as 80%.

I have been putting handles on a batch of mugs that will be ready in time for christmas. These are made in white clay and will be finished with either a green or a blue glaze.

Tis’ that time of year again that I give away one of my teapots in honour of International Tea Day December 15th. International Tea Day was initiated in India to raise awareness of the conditions of tea workers across the globe. Have an artisan cup of tea, like my facebook page and you can win a one-of-a-kind handbuilt teapot. Or, simply share your own personal tea story. I love tea and I love stories.

The actual design and colour of the teapot will be a surprise but I guarantee it will be one of my original teapots.

I invite you to attend my Annual Open House December 2 – 4, 10am – 6pm
