In this world of instant communication, no limits travel, fast food, a global economy, and a great abundance of all consumables, at least for those of us who have unfettered access to it in our country, it’s hard to imagine that in a small corner of the world in Thailand, a man is struggling to make ends meet for his new family, to keep his late wife’s dream alive, and to keep his four elephants healthy and content until the end of their natural lives. I had the honor of meeting this man in December 2007 when I visited the Elephants and Friends Rescue Camp near the little village of Nonghoi, Thailand.
We’re excited to be participating in our first in-person event - the Art on Lark Festival in Albany, New York on June 21, 2008. That is where our offices are based out of, with our inventory and shipping coming out of Central Pennsylvania. If you are in the Albany area or nearby, be sure to visit the festival and our booth, it is a really good time (I’ve attended the past 5!).

They come in lots of different colors and Men’s and Women’s sizes
