support our friend this week and help her recover some of her devastating loss. she has a heart of gold and makes incredible products!
Iām absolutely devastated right now.
Iām soaking wet, bleeding, exhausted, and emotionally drained. Today really put into perspective how much goes into a small business behind the scenes. Iāve spent weeks preparing for this festivalāpouring my heart into it, creating new products I was so excited and proud to share with you all. I had high hopes for a great day, even with the weather forecast.
But unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans.
A huge gust of wind came through and despite having a fully enclosed tent, it tore through my setup. So much of my inventoryāespecially my glass productsāwere destroyed. They shattered everywhere. I lost at least half, if not more, of everything I brought. My olive oils, one of my top sellers, are almost completely gone. I only have a handful left, and honestly, I donāt know if Iāll be able to bring them back once theyāre gone.
Right now, I feel completely deflated. Like I have to start from scratch. And Iām not sure what comes next.
When you support a small business, youāre not just buying a productāyouāre supporting a dream, a family, and countless hours of hard work. Today feels like I let that all slip through my fingers, and thatās a really heavy feeling.
To everyone who supports my businessāI am truly so grateful for you. And to those who stepped in to help me today, thank you will never be enough. My husband dropped everything, rushed to me, and helped me clean up and pack what we could so I could just go home. Iām beyond thankful for him.
The silver liningāsome items are still okay. A lot of things are just wet and can be salvaged, and thankfully none of my baked treats were ruined. Iāll be going through everything and sharing whatās still available.
Iāll have baked goods ready for porch pickup, and they will be available starting tomorrow afternoon at Harvest Moon camper.
Thank you for sticking with me through the highs and lows. It truly means everything š¤
