✨ Two weekends. So many drinks. So many new faces. And SO much gratitude. ✨
We have finally made it home from Hastings, the trailer is parked, we’re partially unpacked (the rest can wait 😂), and we are officially BEAT.
But before we crash, we have to say THANK YOU. 🤎
The last two weekends at The Barn Festival were so much fun. To every single person who stopped by our trailer, tried us for the first time, waited patiently while we were busy, chatted and laughed with us — we appreciated every interaction.
And to those of you who came back for seconds, thirds, or even multiple days… 🥹 There truly isn’t a bigger compliment. Seeing a familiar face walk back up to our window because you loved something enough to come back means more than you know.
We noticed you, and we appreciated you. ❤️
If you snapped a picture of your drink, PLEASE post it and tag us! 📸 We LOVE seeing your pictures, and we’d love to hear what your favorite drink was!
We also genuinely appreciate your feedback. We’re constantly learning and tweaking things as we grow. If you ever get something from us that you don’t love, please tell us! We’d much rather have the opportunity to make it right than have you leave disappointed. ❤️
There are a lot of late nights, early mornings, supply runs, prep, dishes, loading and unloading behind this little trailer. 😂 But seeing you walking around with our cups, telling your friends to come try us, and coming back for another drink makes all of the crazy worth it.
The Barn Festival — thank you for welcoming Rustic Sips & Sweets for TWO incredible weekends! Thank you to everyone behind the scenes for creating such a beautiful event and giving small businesses like ours the opportunity to be a part of it.
And Hastings — you were SO good to us. 🤎
Every drink purchased, friend told, post shared, page followed, and familiar face at our window helps our family continue building this little dream. We don’t take any of it for granted.
A special shoutout to Haley for helping us capture and share our drinks on social media! 🤎 We were so busy serving all of you that we barely had a chance to take any pictures ourselves — but that’s definitely not a bad problem to have! 😂 We’re so thankful she helped us document a little bit of the craziness along the way!
Tonight, we’re putting our feet up and leaving the rest of the unpacking for tomorrow. 😂
From our family to yours, THANK YOU! 🤎
Until next time, Hastings!
