Farmer's Market Poster Wins Honors

Exciting news on the local front! Several springs ago I was commissioned to paint the artwork for the McMinnville Farmer's Market poster. Recently, the Oregon Farmer's Market Association held a state-wide contest for the best farmer's market poster. McMinnville chose to send in mine for their entry. Guess what? Mine won first place!

The prize money went to the McMinnville Downtown Association (they DID commission and produce the poster, after all), but I get to bask in the glory and rest on my laurels!


The poster is no longer available for sale, however, you will find THE ARTWORK ON Aa large selection of giftware and apparel that features this artwork in my Cafepress online shop, available with or without text:

Featured Gift Item...TOTE BAGS

A great way to save green (as in bucks, dinero, moolah) this holiday season, is to give earth-friendly tote bags to family and friends. At $15.99 each, these versatile and roomy totes are budget-friendly and can be used for shopping bags, book bags, or gardening totes. I have over 150 designs to choose from at www.CafePress.com/SusanFaye

OTHER REASONS TO USE RE-USABLE TOTE BAGS:

Plastic bags don’t biodegrade, they photodegrade—breaking down into smaller and smaller toxic bits contaminating soil and waterways and entering the food web when animals accidentally ingest.

Bags are made from oil: it takes about 430,000 gallons of oil to produce 100 million plastic bags, and the U.S. goes through 380 billion of them a year.

Hundreds of thousands of sea turtles, whales and other marine mammals die every year from eating discarded plastic bags mistaken for food.

So please consider adding our 100% cotton tote bags to your daily routine AND your gift list this year! Thanks for visiting!
