The 15th annual Art in the Garden show at Paxson Hill Farm takes place this Labor Day weekend. Each year, the show presents the work of more than 50 fine artists and artisans from around the Delaware River Valley. The mix of hand-woven garments, jewelry, leather goods, metalwork, glassware, paintings, prints and much more makes this is a great opportunity for some early holiday shopping. Nothing beats locally made, quality, one-of-a-kind gifts!
Thanks to the beautiful setting at Paxson Hill Farm, Art in the Garden also offers a lovely day’s outing. After enjoying the artwork, you can shop for a wide assortment of garden plants, check out the resident emus, peacocks and llamas, sit by a pond and listen to its amphibian inhabitants make a racket or get a broad view of the farm from a well-placed gazebo.
