I initially ran into Perry Riley as he was buying some candles & putting them into a market “basket” made from a gourd. He said this fair was a new one for him & to please come take some photos of his site. Which I did.
Mr. Perry grows all the gourds he sells. He also does all the research & decoration of his decorated gourds.
The area under the tent fly is full of mostly undecorated gourds in a wide variety of sizes. These can be used as is or decorated by the new owner as they desire.
There is every kind and size you could want here. Water gourds, food storage gourds, craft supply storage gourds, marketing gourds. Each is carefully researched and then decorated by hand using traditional tools and techniques.
The designs reflect a wide variety of cultures and eras.
