Greetings ! May this letter find you well, warm and having successfully weathered SNOWMAGGEDON 2010 (click here for GREENBRIDGE in the snow !!!) This year will bring us more barn renovation, rebuilding the gas kiln (hoping to experiment with used cooking oil as an alternative fuel source) and the continuing development of new and traditional pottery lines including...    
 
We continue to appreciate life deeply but poignantly after the losses of Evan's mom Doris and my Godmother's husband Clarence last fall and despite the uncertainty of an everchanging economy and political environment. Each day, we are grateful for our health, family, friends, and the freedom to make beautiful things and be appreciated for it. Thanks always for your continuing encouragement and being part of our Family. Rebecca & the Crew at Greenbridge Pottery

For those interested in the current headcount of the Pottery's menagerie of animal entertainers, we have 2 dogs, 3 cats, 0 guineas (last ones lost to fox dinner in early Spring), 1 black Rosecomb Bantam, 7 Araucana chickens, 1 Rhode Island Red chicken, 1 white crested white Polish bantam rooster, named Beryl, 1 white crested buff bantam hen named Little Buffy, 1 white crested black Polish bantam hen and 2 new Buff Orpingtons.
Sometimes, even the animals want to get into the act. Below you can see Little Red the chicken doing a collaborative art work with Bine.
To see the Little Red's finished mug, look for a pen by the guest book!
