It's Been A Year

It's been a year and we are gearing up for another festival season! Lots have happened over this past year included our new addition! Emma Grace blessed our lives in June and we have been learning to live life as a family. We love it!

The Amish have started boxing up their baskets for the festival already. We will be located in the same spot as last year. Come visit us at this year's Sauerkraut Festival!

Saurkraut Weekend: Photos

Thought I would share some of the photos from this years Sauerkraut Festival. Also, if you have some photos of you and your baskets that you purchased from us, send them to our email and we will post them on here! Show us how you use them around your house, how you use them for gifts, or just you and the basket you picked!



This lady was being Dorothy for Halloween and needed a baskets too carry her "Toto". Super cute idea!

Don't forget to send us your basket photos! { buggybaskets@live.com }

Potato Festival Review

What a cold and wet weekend we had. But thanks to everyone who showed up and purchased the baskets. We did the best we could to keep them covered, and to pack them into giant trash bags! The soaps went over great, and we hope she will make some more for us next year. We still aren't sure if we will be doing the Potato Festival next year, it was more of a "food" type festival and we are all about the "crafts". We will let you know as soon as we talk it over with the families.

Saurkraut Weekend

We hope everyone will venture out and enjoy this warm fall weather! We set up the booth last night and have tons of baskets for you to chose from this year. We also have handmade Amish Soap, and it is all natural.

Hope too see everyone there!

Nice to Meet You

It was so nice meeting everyone at the Potato Festival. We found that a lot of people really enjoy hearing the history of the families and the culture. Thanks for talking to us, and keeping us standing so we could warm up!!

It was a colder/wet weekend, but that didn't stop our shoppers. Can't wait too see everyone {new customers and repeat customers} next weekend at the Sauerkraut Festival!

Don't forget you can follow us on Twitter for more updates on sold out baskets, and new arrivals! Look for us @buggybaskets .

We are booth number 106, northern end of the festival. Hope too see you there!

Potato Festival Information

We have been asked about the Potato Festival several times, so I wanted to get as much information out there as we can. You can stop by their website and see the details they are providing. But here is what we can tell you about the festival:
