I am excited to announce that today, May 21, marks my first appearance at the Seacoast Eat Local Exeter Farmers' Market this season, having missed the opening day due to unforeseen circumstances. With the forecast indicating beautiful weather, I invite you to visit my website for a schedule of my upcoming market dates, as my art life is undergoing changes and I will not be at the market every week. Custom belts and repair services remain available upon request.

We are selling our Seacoast Area Mobile Market Vehicle! We’re looking to sell the vehicle to another organization or business who can get as much use out of it as we have!

The vehicle is being sold as-is and is fully operational. The vehicle is ready for the buyer to get it registered and hit the road! You won't find a vehicle like this anywhere. It is totally customized and one-of-a-kind. It is perfect for any farm, food business, farmers market, food hub, or similar business.

Please help us share this opportunity with any businesses you know who may be interested.

Last 2 pairs of “Pansy Earrings”, Opalized fluorite (purple/white), aka Tiffany stone. May’s birthstone Emerald for all you May babies. I have many more in process, have a favorite gem stone , or color, let me know. Summer markets run every Saturday, and I will have them with me, unless I sell out. Only problem I hand cut each flower petals by hand. Each follows a pattern so I can make all 5 petals, with artist liberty’s. Enjoy, if you are coming to the Portsmouth farmers market swing by my booth, and we can play dress-up 😘

Can’t wait

🎶🌟 Welcome the Sounds of Summer! 🌟🎶

Get ready to kick back, relax, and tap your toes—because the Fretbenders are bringing their signature sound to the stage this summer! 🎸☀️

This New England Americana duo delivers a rich blend of blues, roots music, with a dash of folk and country for good measure. Their sound is best described as where a “down-home barbecue meets a speakeasy.” 🍖🎶

Featuring:
🎤 Diane Kordas – lead vocals, guitar, and songwriter
🎶 Robert Kordas – vocals, dobro, slide guitars, and banjo

Expect fun, toe-tapping tunes, a little humor, and truly fantastic musicianship that will have you smiling all night long!

The Fretbenders have been featured on New Hampshire Public Radio and have performed at festivals and concert venues all across New England—now they’re bringing that magic right here for our community to enjoy 💛

Bring your friends, your lawn chairs, and your love of great music—this is one summer performance you won’t want to miss!
