Dear Friends,
A hard note to write...
From the very first day Vera’s Iron and Vine opened its doors, you showed up — with open hearts, open hands, and a shared love of creativity. What began as a dream grew into something truly special: a community hub, a sanctuary for artists, and a space where beauty, connection, and craftsmanship came alive. There has never been anything quite like it in our area. And that’s because of you.
Your support over the years — whether through kind words, purchases, collaborations, or simply wandering in to say hello — has meant the world to me. Together, we created a space filled with stories, laughter, music, art, and heart.
As life invites me into a new chapter, I’ve made the tender decision to close the store at the end of August. But before we do, I’d love to go out in true Iron and Vine fashion — with a big, beautiful celebration of everything this place has meant.
We will start with a 20% discount sale on select items starting August 1st to kick off the Wilton Blueberry Festival. The sale will continue through the third and fourth week of August.
During the third and fourth weeks of August, we’ll gather to honor the magic and the many hands that made this place what it is. More details to come — but know it will be two weekends of joy, memory, art, and community.
And this isn’t goodbye — not at all. You’ll still be able to find me just five doors up at 87 High Street in Wilton. My studio will be open on weekends for shopping, events like Second Saturdays, and special holiday gatherings.

More classes and expanded pottery studio hours are coming, and most days you’ll probably catch me in my coveralls, making something with my hands and dreaming up what’s next.
You can always reach me at (207) 418-0374 (text first😉) or by email at verajohnson@zoho.com. I’ll also keep hours posted at the studio so you can drop in and say hello.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for making Vera’s Iron and Vine not just a store, but a living, breathing creative home. I can’t wait to see you in August and again just up the street.
🐝🌻Also, just a note The farmer's market will operate there through the end of the year. So please don't worry about that.We have discussed it. This is not something I take lightly🐝🌺🦋
With so much gratitude
Vera Johnson
