Popular Peddler's Village Shops Hosting 'Bees And Trees' Open House

LAHASKA, PA — Two Peddler's Village shops - Sticky Situations and Extra Virgin - will mark their 15th anniversary on Tuesday by hosting a "Bees and Trees" open house from 4 to 7 p.m.

The celebratory community event will take place simultaneously in all seven shop locations, including in the two shops at Peddler’s Village in Lahaska. Celebrations will also be held in Olde Mistick Village in Mystic, Connecticut, and in the River Place Shops in Frankenmuth, Michigan.

Founded in 2011 by Stephen Clemente with a single storefront in Mystic, Connecticut, the family-owned company has expanded across three states, curating an acclaimed portfolio of pure raw varietal honeys, 100 percent cold-pressed extra virgin olive oils, aged balsamic vinegars, pasta, sauces, and other artisanal provisions.

The 15th anniversary theme, “Bees and Trees,” honors the natural source of their flagship collections — the vital honeybee pollinators and centuries-old olive groves — while showing appreciation for the many loyal customers who have supported the shops over the years.

“We started 15 years ago with a passion for genuine, unprocessed food and educational tasting room experiences,” said Stephen J. Clemente, founder. “Reaching seven locations across three historic retail villages is something we could never have done without our devoted community of food lovers. The ‘Bees and Trees’ celebration is our way of saying thank you.”

Guests attending the open house can enjoy refreshments, hourly giveaways, and 15 percent discounts. The evening will also mark the beginning of the Golden Jars Giveaway, which will continue through December 31. During the Golden Jars Giveaway, 15 customers who find a winning QR code under the lid of Sticky Situations honey jars will win a case (either 12 8-oz. jars or 24 4-oz. jars) of their favorite honey provisions.

Admission to the open house is free and open to the public. For more information, store directions, or online details, visit stickysituationshoney.com.
