If you love artisan furniture, Field + Supply is a must-go-to event located at Hutton Brickyard in Kingston, New York. Held for three days, the event showcases not only artisan furniture, but also home accessories, clothing, food and gifts. We love events like these for several reasons. One, many of the artisans use natural and local materials. Two, you’ll be supporting small, local businesses. Third, these pieces are unique and beautiful, easily becoming a cherished heirloom for your family. And finally, you have an opportunity to know the local craftsmen better.
