Midsummer solstice market today!

Come see me, art from my featured artists Casey Bean & Jo Martin, and so many other fantastic vendors.

11 - 4 @ 1801 Reggie White Boulevard, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37408

I’m INSIDE today thank the heavens. This is also my first completly solo (besides helping with my canopy, I would still be fighting with it tbh. He’s the best, for all your leather needs check him out!) event in 6 going on 7 years.

Am i nervous? Maybe a little. Am I excited? Absolutely!

There's a reason we called it the Firefly Market. 🌿
Fireflies are quietly disappearing — and most people have no idea. Light pollution, habitat loss, and pesticides are wiping out a creature most of us grew up chasing in the backyard.

This Saturday, we're shining a light on that. Join us at the 2nd Annual Twilight Firefly Market and drop a donation at our conservation station located in our office space inside the dome of the Chattanooga Choo Choo. It takes 30 seconds and it actually matters.

🗓 Saturday, June 6 | 5–10 PM
📍 Chattanooga Choo-Choo | 1400 Market Street
🎟 Free to attend | All ages welcome
🥂 Adult beverages available | 21+ with valid ID

HELLO, HEY, LISTEN! 🧚✨

We are in need of dire need of help from the bravest of the brave. Our fairies were captured and their wings were stolen right off their back. The monstrous thief hid them away in hopes of turning them to riches upon their return. 💰💰

Here’s how you can help. An accomplice of the thief came forward to clear their name, and help guide our adventures to the lost fairy wings. The thief’s secrets are set to be leaked at dawn on the 30th of May while they are away. The path may be treacherous, with creatures lurking about, but your bravery will be rewarded handsomely. 🪎

After locating a wing, bring it by The Hammered Goose’s tent to reunite the fairy with their missing wing to receive your reward.

After you stop by to update the hunt, will have your choice between a discount of our wares or your choice of a treasure from our chest.

Join the hunt and festivities at the Chattanooga Renaissance Faire, May 30th from 10AM - 8PM at Coolidge Park. RAIN OR SHINE.

Follow along for any updates and upcoming hints

Finding beauty in everything is not always wonderful, it can be devastating.

We picked up a raccoon who had been struck by a car and left to die. Poor girl seemed as if she was almost across out of the road before she met her end.

Bought her a bouquet of flowers, then left her to be reclaimed by nature. I hope she is resting well and is somewhere safe with plenty of yummy treats for her to enjoy.

Please drive carefully and show compassion to wildlife.

Always do what you can to help. We are in their home, actively destroying / taking it over. Remember to be kind and patient so they're able to make it home to continue to breathe life into our planet.

I'll check a few months down the line for bones left behind after nature wraps up the life cycle to include in my art. I will continue to dedicate myself / my art to encouraging care for these babies. I hope to help people find beauty in everything, even something considered unloved.

The Chattanooga Market today from 11-4! Come see me and get some yummy ice cream during the clumpies ice cream social. FREE GEODE WITH PURCHASE!

I’m fully stocked on my original mystery beetles (new beetles have been added!), butterflies, rattlesnake / insect jewelry, and more!

My goal today is to leave with one empty tote. Even if it’s one of my shoe box size totes. I have a bad habit of forgetting I’m here as a business and not a professional yapper. Gotta stay focused 💪🏻🫪
