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
