Celebrating New England Makers

Several years ago I attended a gathering of more than 200 local food producers. Looking around the crowded room, I was struck by the passion and tenacity of those makers, who work so hard to make their dreams a reality.

Many years of working for an artisan food producer myself has shown me firsthand the dedication that is at the heart of those who create. By never compromising quality and by building genuine connections, one customer at a time, they have grown and flourished, producing award-winning products enjoyed by thousands of devoted fans throughout New England and beyond.

Many of our neighbors are doing the same in other fields, too - making beautiful and useful products with their hands and imaginations. We invite you to share their vision and creativity with your customers!

Take some time to look around our site. You’ll be amazed, as I was, at the ingenuity of our New England makers!
