Albuquerque was AWESOME! and other topics.....

Wow! We had such a good time at Vintage Market Days in Albuquerque! We met so many new people and sold a few things, too. After the awesome show we took a side trip to Santa Fe and met even more talented artists and craftsmen! It was such a beautiful place and we had to leave too soon!
Our little booth at VMD.

So, I got home and started trying to catch up on the fun at Rowanwood. I checked the crop in the field and determined we had no time to waste! Our Black Amber Sorghum was ready for harvest! So off to the field with our cane knives we went.
Then we had to press the juice from the cane and boil our syrup. We have a very small crop this year and we are doing it all by hand.  I had to find the right equipment but thankfully the local flea market saved the day.
And finally we got our syrup.
So the fun never ends at Rowanwood. We have several shows coming up in Arkansas and Oklahoma in the next couple of months. Check our homepage at rowanwoodart.com for Show Dates!
