Looking for a special, one-of-a-kind gift? Or perhaps something for you own home?

There’ll be a fine selection of unique items by local craftspeople at this year’s Dickens Fair: ceramics by Debra Slaco and Avadon Pottery; fine woodworking from The Perfect Piece, and colourful glass created by Melissa Hennekes. Arbutus Arts is offering beautiful serving implements (and jewelry) made from fallen arbutus wood, and Sophie’s Choice Creative Organics will bring beeswax lanterns.

If you are more the green and growing type, Powertex will be showing their weather-resistant sculpture, perfect for the garden. Or you can go back-to-basics and pick up seeds from The Garden Path, along with books on how to grow them (and cook your harvest).
