Everyone is back from the shore and back to the office in Center City, and we can’t wait to introduce a great artisan line-up for this September, with something for everyone.”
Confirmed vendors include Appleville Treats, offering plant-based dog treats, Bees & Wax Soap & Candle Company with natural bath products, and Ellaful’s pressed flower art.
