Previously, I ran an environmental home store or, as some would call it, a green lifestyle store. Location is everything, but we did have a good web presence, plus I wrote for Natural Life Magazine and lectured around Vancouver on green living.
I have some stock left from the store which I brought along. It was too valuable to dump or simply give away to those who knew nothing about what it actually was, so really, the only choice was to pack it up. Some of this stock is made in Germany organic wood finishes by Bioshield. I used some of these to redo the wood floor in my home and in the sheds and the product is phenomenal. I will see if I am allowed to vend it.
I also have some exquisite blends of essential oils made for the store. The line is "Divine Essences" and they were created to enhance the emotions and feeling they were named after. Such blends as "Love, Gratitude, Kindness and Pretty" are created from the essential oils blended carefully to promote emotions and states that promote these feelings. Along with the soaps made from lye, oil and water, they will make great gift sets with a few drops in the soap and the essential oil along side.
There are many items that I could vend at the market, but some are not permitted. I will meet with the market mentor tomorrow and she will give me the low down on what is permitted and what is not. In the meantime, soap production is under way, along with curtains in the making for the farmhouse kitchen. There are not enough hours in the day!
