The Freckled Lass

Celtic-inspired costumes, reversible capes, soft corsets, romantic angel sleeve chemises, 16th-century shirts, viking trews, bloomers and more. 

“I started sewing at a young age but didn’t start with garment construction until I was a young adult. I felt my basic knowledge wasn’t enough so I enrolled in dressmaking school and my love for sewing intensified. I have been sewing passionately for more than 20 years with most of that in the history field. The Freckled Lass was born between my genetics and my passion. Both bring a smile to my face as well to others.”


Granny Fi’s

Note: We will be selling Granny Fi’s shortbread for her at the CVS General Store 

Traditional Scottish Shortbread, with that oh-so-good homemade taste. We make the best Traditional Scottish Shortbread this side of the pond, maybe even ever! I am originally from the UK. The recipe is from my Mothers and Grandmothers who are Scottish. Like chocolate chip recipes everyone has one, but ours just melts in your mouth. It is packaged in individual pieces or in larger amounts, either in gift tins or larger bulk bags. People often think of shortbread during the holidays but why wait?

We have several flavors available, traditional, lemon and hazelnut. Also a mix to which you could add any flavor you want. Gluten-free? no worries we have a recipe for you too.


Heart Song Arts Co

Bringing the beauty of nature to life in clay for your personal joy and fulfillment. Handmade items for Renaissance Festivals and Fairs. These items are themed with either Celtic or Scandinavian-themed patterns and colors.


Oran Mor Artisan Mead

At Oran Mor Artisan Mead we love creativity and diversity, playing with all the possibilities nature has to offer. One of our main focuses is bringing locally grown and unusual varieties of fruits and pairing them with local and varietal honeys, herbs and spices, to create unique combinations that showcase the richness of the Umpqua Valley’s Orchards, Vineyards and Apiaries. We draw from tradition as well as pushing the boundaries of what Mead can be. 

After years of playing Mad-Scientist in the kitchen, tripping over brew buckets, and throwing one new idea or another into our bubbling brew, we have come up with a series of Meads, Melomels and Metheglins that dance through the seasons using what ever fruits and honey’s that are at their perfection. As such we will have a constantly rotating variety of Meads, produced in limited batches.

Myths and Legends, Deities and Heroes dance across our bottles and inspire our creations. Mead has an ancient past, and rich history, and is mentioned time after time in Celtic, Norse, Roman, Greek and even Egyptian mythology and sagas. Many cultures considered Mead to be the drink of the Gods, the elixir of life, the inspirer of poets and heroes. And so we weave these tales, myths and legends, into our mead and into our story…
