Holiday Gift Shopping – Time is running out!

It’s now December and you know what that means – everyone is out at the same time competing for the same gifts. Why not take a break from the hustle and mayhem associated with last minute gift shopping! Come and check out our 8th Annual Holiday Gift Shop at CICR’s roasting building.

Now I know we’ve been talking about it a lot lately, but we want to make sure you don’t miss out on something that can put the fun back into Holiday Shopping. Check out some of these pictures…

Lets start with some yummy cobbler samples!

Next we have a wonderful, hand-carved, wood birdhouse.

Camano Island Hot Cocoa’s are always a treat!

Candles, handmade soap, jewelry, pottery, and more!

And of course, our shade-grown, organic, fairly traded Coffee and yummy Pirates! Chocolate Truffles!

 

We hope to see you soon! Of course, for those who can’t make it, we want to remind you that we are offering free shipping on all of our Holiday Gift Boxes through December 15th! Make sure and use the discount code holiday09 on checkout to get your free shipping through our website!

Coffee Tasting at Art by the Bay

Art by the Bay

Saturday and Sunday, July 11th and 12th we had the pleasure of serving free coffee, chocolate, and Frozen X-plosions and teaching coffee 101 to many people at the 2009 Art by the Bay. Art by the Bay is an art show here on Camano Island. It’s always a great time to get to enjoy the local, pacific northwest talent.

We had a record day of visitors on Saturday and, if it wasn’t for the pouring rain for a few hours, we would have had a record day on Sunday as well! For those of you that are unaware of Art by the Bay or the artist community on Camano Island, here is a small excerpt from the Art by the Bay website…

“Art by the Bay includes over 100 juried artists and craftspeople from around the Northwest, plants and garden art, gourmet food, and live music throughout the weekend featuring an amazingly eclectic array of local performers. Free admission, free parking, free music!”

Camano Island Coffee Roasters was there as well as Pirates Chocolates (our awesome Camano chocolatier) and our sister company, Frozen X-plosion. Check out these pictures that Matt took. Art by the Bay regularly brings 4000+ people together for 2 days at Utsalady Elementary School.

We encourage you to come out next year when they move it to the Stanwood/Camano Community Fairgrounds. We’ll see ya then!

For More Information, visit the Stanwood/Camano Island Art’s Guild website. Also, we encourage you to leave comments about Art by the Bay. Who was your favorite Artist? Did you get some Coffee? How about a Frozen X-plosion? Which day did you come out?
