Enger Grove’s inaugural outdoor Christmas market is just around the corner! Join us on Saturday, December 7 from 1 – 5 p.m.
As an artisan wood shop, we understand that wood is a very tactile art, which makes it hard to always buy online. We want to give customers an opportunity to touch and smell our products, so we have opened up our home for a one-day shopping event!
We’re creating expanded inventory just for this event, beyond the products available on our website. Come check items off your holiday gift list or investigate special additions for your own home. We will have a little bit of EVERYTHING available – from small items like rolling pins and tree ornaments to large furniture pieces (coffee table, butcher block island and more). We’ll also be launching our line of restored vintage hatchets and axes. They come razor sharp, in custom made boxes, and make the perfect gift for the woodsman in your life.
John will give occasional wood turning demos throughout the day. Watch him create French-style rolling pins and buy one fresh off the lathe!
The event will be held underneath John’s hand-built timber frame at the edge of our woods, with a path leading through the trees to his rustic cabin. Both buildings will showcase products and be filled with lights, wreaths and magical Christmas cheer.
There will be some amazing guest artists joining us, representing a variety of art mediums. (We will announce names over the course of this month!) Enjoy samples of coffee and baked goods while you shop, or purchase some to take home to your family.
We are excited to have you join us for a mystical, magical afternoon in the woods!
