This Weeks update 12/20


Sorry I missed an update for you last week but the construction and renovation in Clearwater is creeping along slower than expected due to permits and dealing with the municipalities. We have started some projects on the old Creamery building but have mostly been getting things stagged and ready to hit it hard once we get all the OK's. See the picture of the old Creamery building before we purchased it.
Look for our new billboard on westbound I-94 just before the Clearwater exit and our kiosk display in the St. Cloud Crossroads mall. We wanted to get them up to let you all know we have some great gifts available on line. By the time you read this it may be too late for Christmas gifts but then again, gifts are good to get any time.....even if they are for yourself :)

This Week's Update 12/6

Well, the construction has begun as we started digging and tearing apart all sorts of things this last week. We are going to be doing a lot of the renovating ourselves so it will take a good 5 months to get things in presentable shape. Then we will probably continue more renovating and updating for a couple years. I will try to remember and take pictures of the progress and post them for you to see.

Despite all the construction work and planning, we are still going to be adding new products and suppliers weekly so keep checking the web site for new and exciting things. We are trying to stay balanced between the construction, adding new products, and all the other things needed to get this business off the ground and have an awesome grand opening for you this next spring.

Another thing on the drawing board is a spring weekend event to showcase suppliers and products, bring in speakers, have special activities, and offer outstanding deals. We are hoping for a fun filled Spring to kick off our first year.
