Pick-up Parking
When buying large or bulky items, we are providing parking at the Pool Gate or Barn Gate for pick-up of your purchased items when you are ready to leave. Example – I buy a metal wall hanging and I pay the Artisan for the product. In turn, the Artisan gives you a ticket to allow you to park in our pick-up locations. The other ticket is placed on my purchase. We have a cargo cart to help with the moving of large or bulky items. Ask your Artisan for more information.
