A heartfelt thank you from us to you. As we approach our 10 year celebration of having a brick and mortar (over 16 years in business! 🤯) we’re feeling all kinds of grateful. This business that started on a whim on the kitchen table has grown to be more than just a family owned business. We have gained more than we can ever list from our journey as accidental entrepreneurs. When I look back I see a lot of bravery on our end but most of all I see community support and deep connection. I remember every word of encouragement, shared suggestion, compliment, and story of connecting via elSage. I often think of elSage as a group project- seeking to meet the moment and the community the best way we can. Striving to make a difference through commerce and community. Bringing activism into everyday actions. I’m ever-thankful to wake up to work everyday that is varied and creative, interesting and dynamic. I’m grateful for all of our team members over the years and most of all for you. You’re the reason we’re still here. Thanks for supporting what we do. We hope you’ll celebrate with us this weekend, let’s party Friday-Sunday! Newsletter subscribers have all the deets, check our blog if you missed them. Can’t wait to see you, and for real- THANK YOU ❤️

is tomorrow 10-4! Here’s another set of Valley Made photos through the years. My mom even found a few of me super pregnant at the very first event. Tomorrow is 47 makers, 2 live bands, lots of community and maybe even sunshine all day? 🤞☀️

Many of you may be familiar with our side project - did you know it started as a 1 year anniversary party? Our next market is this Sunday and I hope to see you all there. I wish I had more photos of that first event. I was VERY pregnant and pulling everything together by a thread. We had so much fun at the anniversary party in the parking lot we decided to do a whole series of them the next year. Valley Made Market turns 9 this year, right before my youngest turns the same age 🤯 I’ve been having fun sifting through old photos as we plan and promote our 10 year brick and mortar anniversary celebration next weekend. It’s impossible to separate our brick and mortar beginnings from they were symbiotic for the 3 years we hosted market in the parking lot outside our tiny space. Now market is at Riverwalk Park just around the corner from our current location. It’s a level up from the old lot and I’m grateful that we have such a comfortable home for Valley Made Market. All that to say- enjoy these photos that cover 9 years of Valley Made. See you Sunday! 🙌💫✨🫶

Time is a funny thing. All of the sudden one day you’re filling out a form and realize that you renovated and opened your first brick and mortar 10 years ago. That you’ve been at this small business thing for 16 years, and that two of your babies are way taller than you.

As an accidental business owner I’m here to give a full endorsement of taking the path less traveled. Following our hearts and guts has taken us on a journey that I never could have imagined. It’s made my dreams come true and given me new dreams that I never knew I wanted.

This community is what I continue to value most. Every comment, message, shop stop in, review and purchase makes a difference in the life of a small business. You are the reason we are still here because you continue to show up for us!

Come celebrate 10 years with us June 5-7! A full line up of events will be released soon (you don’t want to miss this one!)
