The holiday shopping season is right around the corner and we are kicking it off this year on Saturday, November 4 with the PA Wilds Makers Market. This online shopping event will take place on the PA Wilds Marketplace, ShopThePAWilds.com, and will feature sales, specials, and new products from PA Wilds artisans. You can support the region and get your shopping done early this year, while learning more about the small businesses throughout the PA Wilds.
Here’s how to shop:
- On November 4, watch videos shared by the participating artists on this page to learn more about each of the businesses and the artisans.
- Check out which artists are offering new products and deals. Click the artists' pictures to be taken to their individual storefronts and see all their offerings.
- Use the black banner at the top of the page to keep coming back to this page so you can easily jump to other makers' storefronts.
- Once you're finished shopping, simply go to your cart to check out. All applicable discounts will be applied in the cart. Select your shipping options for each artist and proceed to check out.
From beauty and self-care items crafted from items grown in their gardens to jewelry and fine art, the Makers Market will feature products perfect for all the loved ones in your life. (And it's just in time for holiday shopping!)
