This past May, we introduced you to some of our region’s makers—artists, builders, glass blowers, laser cutters. Now, as we welcome colder weather, the holiday season and family gatherings galore, we thought it would be most appropriate to highlight the Valley’s makers of bread, pastries, muffins and more. Meet the bakers on pg. 42! Take note of where to find their creations so that you can include them in all of your seasonal celebrations.
And when you’re not frequenting the establishments of our talented local bakers, save room for some jolly holiday crafting. On pg. 36, Joe Moussa of Mosaic & Co. is giving step-by-step instruction for making the DIY winter wreath of your dreams! Grab your ribbon, pine cones and some glitter.
Then, on pg. 34, find five festive things to do this month, from shopping The Art Establishment’s holiday market to enjoying a wilderness walk with Pool Wildlife Sanctuary. And don’t miss the expert tips for avoiding winter blues this season on pg. 23!
