As we noted on social media, the first of this month was Spunky Old Broads Day - and it ushered in Spunky Old Broads Month. In case you didn’t know, Spunky Old Broads Day was started by Dr. Gayle Carson in 2002. “I started it because I found that once a woman hit 50, she was almost invisible and as a woman who keeps reinventing herself and is very active in business, media, etc, I wanted to acknowledge that is not the truth.” And, in case you are wondering, old age is not a requirement in being an SOB. “Generally for women, it means Spunky, Open, and Brave. I think that says it all.” That may say it all, but that’s still a lot of territory to cover! And so Dr. Carson expanded the entire month of February into Spunky Old Broads Month, including selecting a Spunky Old Broad of the Year. Past winners have included Robin Roberts, Cloris Leachman, Dolly Parton, and Helen Mirren. Other names that leap to mind are Katharine Hepburn, Frida Kahlo, Michelle Obama, Bette Davis, Lena Horne, Iris Apfel - and The Golden Girls! (Watch for some of them to appear on our social media! Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | Pinterest) We wanted to celebrate Spunky Old Broads - as well as those who support Spunky, Open, and Brave women - with an event. A Bring-A-Friend event. It’s simple: bring a friend into Farm from February 17 through the 21st and each of you can enter our drawing! The prize is a $20 mall gift certificate and a gift certificate for an hour of ax throwing at Triple Ax ($20 value) - for each of you! Bring three friends? You get your name entered three times (each of your friends are entered once). More friends, more chances to win!  As we are celebrating Spunk Old Broads; Spunky, Open, and Brave women; those aspiring to be so; and those who support them, this drawing is open to anyone who brings in a friend. PS More events coming this month! Including another Trash or Treasure appraisal event on the 29th.

In keeping with our tradition, we will have a store-wide sale along with cookies, coffee, & hot cider. The hourly prize drawings went over so well at our open house that we just have to continue them too! Store Hours: Saturday, December 14: 10 am to 7 pm Sunday, December 15: Noon to 6 pm We look forward to celebrating with you!  So, let’s say you are shopping for vintage Christmas decorations here at the Farm. (Good on you!) Along the way, you spot something (or a dozen somethings) that you’d like to receive as a holiday gift. (We’re not judging, honest - we just know how easily this happens!) If you’re browsing at a big box store or any local shop in your community which stocks national brands and inventory based on barcodes & SKUs, you can readily add any items to your wishlist app or gift registry service. But most gift registry and wish list apps are not set up to accommodate antique malls, indie shops, vintage boutiques - any real-world, brick & mortar shops which, like our shop, offer very special, hand-curated, hand-made, unusual, and other one-of-a-kind items. (All of which, by the way, are reasons the Farm is such a popular gift destination place in Fargo-Moorhead!) As long-time shoppers ourselves, we here at Fargo Antiques & Repurposed Market are aware of these difficulties. (Hey, we were shoppers, gift-givers, and gift-receivers long before we were creators, curators, and sellers!) So we shopped around, tested a number of gift registry and wishlist apps, and found one which was head & shoulders above the rest: My Registry. My Registry will most definitely work with the big stores - but it also will work for you when you are shopping at the Farm. You simply open the app, take a photo of the item & enter details, such as listing Fargo Antiques & Repurposed Market as the location, the booth number and dealer code, and item price. Don’t worry; if you forget something, you can easily add to or edit the item info at any time. As a bonus, even if the item on your wishlist has been sold, the photo will help our friendly staff direct the gift-givers to a similar item! If you need any assistance, ask us! We’re here to help! Also, My Registry concierge service is available through live chat, phone, and email, seven days a week! Now, with the My Registry app, you can easily add items from the Farm to a wish list or gift registry you can share with family & friends!   Collectors and decorators alike enjoy the thrill of the hunt. Searching for those special, unique pieces is nearly as much fun as finding them! And now, through the end of October, you can enjoy hunting at Farm even more... From now, until the end of October, Fargo Antiques & Repurposed Market is making the hunting for antiques, vintage, collectibles, gifts, & decor even more freakin' eerie-sistible with our Find The Spirit Of Halloween At Farm event! Search the shop for hidden ghosts, like the one shown here. Find one, present it to the cashier, and you'll save from 12% all the way up to 50% off an item from participating vendors! ...Also, we have a fantastic selection of vintage & collectible Halloween items in the store, including vintage blow mold ghosts, cats, jack o'lanterns; antique Halloween postcards, bewitching decor & so much more... Take a look! So stop on in! Become a ghost hunter & find the spirit of Halloween - & savings - at the Farm!  One ghost coupon per person, per visit. Good on day found; not valid on items marked "firm."
