Hi Susan!

Black Creek Pioneer Village in Toronto
(http://www.trca.on.ca/bcpv.html),
mailto:[log in to unmask]; Tel.: 416-736-1733.  They have a
broom-maker, blacksmith, silversmith (or tinsmith?),
confectioner, candlesticks, yarn/weaving, bakers . . . maybe
more.  I believe some of the items made by these
craftspeople are for sale.  (It's been a long while since I
volunteered there.)

Hope this helps . . . sincerely,

Jay Heuman, Visitor & Volunteer Services Coordinator
Joslyn Art Museum, 2200 Dodge Street, Omaha, NE, 68102
