Cindy Wade--Proprietor
Cindy is a 6th generation Vermonter who grew up on a farm as the third from the youngest of 11 children. After a stint in the US Army she returned home to attend college on the GI Bill, married her college sweetheart from Texas, and raised two wonderful homeschooled children. Cindy is also an avid photographer. You can see some of her work online at Angel Ridge Art. Many of the types of tools and items you now see on eBay as 'antiques' were the kind used by Cindy and her family on their farm. Just goes to show you how time can stand still here in Vermont.
