Vendor of the Week: Stoll’s Greenhouse

Stoll’s Greenhouse offers a diverse range of products at their booth. Their offerings include a variety of fresh produce such as fruits and vegetables, including seasonal items like sweet corn, okra, eggplant, and melons that will be available at the market starting during the second weekend of July. Additionally, they provide baked goods, house plants, hanging baskets, herbs, eggs, jellies, and peanut butter.

Inspired by a long family tradition of farming, the Stoll family established the greenhouse as a way to share their love for growing produce. The family has been involved in farming for more than 18 years, and their experience and passion for agriculture have been passed down through generations. Today, Stoll’s Greenhouse continues the legacy, ensuring that customers receive the freshest and highest-quality products.

What sets Stoll’s Greenhouse apart is the personal touch and care given to each product. The Stoll family handles everything themselves, from the very beginning of the process, ensuring that every item reflects their dedication to quality. They take pride in witnessing the daily progress of their plants and hope that customers will appreciate and enjoy the produce as much as they do.

Although Stoll’s Greenhouse is not certified organic, they follow sustainable practices and prioritize the responsible use of resources. They are committed to using safe and environmentally friendly methods, ensuring that their plants and products are free from harmful substances. They believe in providing wholesome and healthy options for their customers, and don’t use anything on their plants they wouldn’t want their children to have.

Customers should keep an eye out for highly sought-after items like sugar snap peas and strawberries, which tend to sell out quickly each year early in the season. Additionally, Stoll’s Greenhouse offers a delightful mix of cherry tomatoes and fairytale eggplant, which can be enjoyed in a grilled preparation with olive oil, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.

Customers can support Stoll’s Greenhouse not only at the farmers market but also by visiting their farmstand, greenhouse, and store located in Washington. Their range of products, including geraniums, can be found at the greenhouse, providing an opportunity for customers to extend their support beyond the market.

Stoll’s Greenhouse is more than just a vendor at the farmers market; it is a family-owned business rooted in a deep love for farming and a commitment to providing fresh, sustainable, and high-quality products to the community.

Jenny DiLegge: Crafting Unique Jewelry with a Touch of Shimmer and Shine

Meet Jenny DiLegge, the creative mind behind Shimmer and Shine Jewelry. While her journey began with the establishment of her brand, her passion for creativity has deep roots. As a child, Jenny was captivated by her Mom and Grandmother’s talents in crochet, sewing, and even holiday table arrangements that could rival Martha Stewart and Better Homes and Gardens. They nurtured her creative spirit and taught her the art of crafting her own creations. Jenny’s most cherished childhood gift was a small plastic craft box that contained everything she needed to learn the art of embroidery. From that moment on, her creative outlets were vast and ever-evolving, with jewelry making becoming her most enduring form of expression.

Jenny embarked on her jewelry-making and Shimmer and Shine journey back in 2011 when she first showcased her creations at Bitterman’s on Main Street. Following the store’s closure, she found a welcoming home for her jewelry at River City Coffee. Even today, you can still find a selection of her exquisite pieces there. Additionally, you can discover her jewelry at Opie and Eleanors on the West side of Evansville, as well as at Traditional Arts Today in Ferdinand, Indiana. For updates and more information, be sure to visit her Facebook page, “Shimmer and Shine Evansville.”

Crafts That Inspire: Wire Jewelry and More
At Shimmer and Shine, Jenny’s craftsmanship is focused on creating wire jewelry from scratch, starting with a simple spool of wire. She employs silver and gold-plated non-tarnishing wire, along with copper and rose gold, to fashion her unique designs. Her collection encompasses a wide variety of necklaces and earrings, all born from her own creative vision. If you appreciate the healing effects of essential oils, Shimmer and Shine offers bracelets that incorporate lava rocks as carriers of these aromatic essences. The porous nature of the lava rocks allows them to absorb and retain the oils, providing you with their therapeutic benefits.

One of Jenny’s personal favorites, the wrap bracelets, are a labor of love due to the meticulous attention and time invested in each piece. These bracelets can be wrapped around your wrist once, twice, or even thrice, depending on your desired length. Crafted with leather cord, silk thread, and an array of beads (including wooden, glass, and stone), they feature three button holes to accommodate both men’s and women’s wrists. The variety of button closures adds an intriguing touch to these wrap bracelets. By wearing one, you can effortlessly achieve the popular layered look with just a single piece of jewelry. Additionally, Shimmer and Shine offers jewelry with a faith-inspired theme for those seeking a meaningful adornment.

Every Piece Tells a Story
Jenny’s jewelry creations reflect her artistic design sensibilities. Customers often remark on the delightful uniqueness and attractiveness of her pieces, which are the result of skillful combinations of materials and elements. At Shimmer and Shine, affordability is also a hallmark, making it the perfect destination for finding gifts. Whether you’re searching for bridal party gifts or group presents, look no further. Customization options are available to help you create a truly one-of-a-kind gift for your loved ones.
