One Year Of Grafted Branch Artisans!

Can you believe it?! We are celebrating the one-year anniversary of Grafted Branch Artisans!!!! It's been quite a year and we have learned a LOT! There have also been a lot of changes. Let's do a brief recap.

• Became an LLC in July
  
• Did our first craft show in August
  
• Attended a slew of farmer's markets in August/September
  
• Did an indoor market through December, as well as a few random craft shows
  
• Took a break from shows and markets to work on developing products
  
• May 2024, the outdoor market season started up again. We are at three different markets, each one once a month
  
• July/August - ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!
  

We've grown our product line to over 10 distinct items, with variations on several of them. Mark is just now developing a new style of bracelet and we hope to have ornaments this fall! Our newest products are the horseshoe hooks and dog collar tags.

This summer, Dan and the boys built a new woodshop space in the barn so now that shop has more space, better lighting, and it's no longer a thoroughfare and less random stuff should end up in Mark's way :) Mark has been hard at work getting things set up, including building/modifying his workbenches to optimize horizontal surfaces. 

Let's not forget about custom work! We've been really pleased at the wide variety of custom jobs people have had for us. Everything from modifications and replacements to repairs and brand new creations! Each custom job is a fun and unique challenge.

What is your favorite product that we have? Do you have any ideas for products you'd like to see us develop in the coming year/near future? Leave a comment! We'd love to hear from you!
