Hawthorne Hill Farm
Owner Bonnie Lodula talks about Hawthorne Hill Farm How long have you been in business? How many years has Hawthorne Hill Farm been in New Berlin? This year marks 10 years in business for Hawthorne Hill farm. How did you get started? What inspired you to Open? I have been collecting and creating all of my life. I love to create displays in my home and in my store and in my life! I have sold my art in stores and craft shows since 1985. I slowly made my way into some of the top shows in Wisconsin. I was lucky enough to be noticed and signed several licensing agreements with my snowmen figurines. Through this all, I had dreamed of my own store. In 2009 I had the opportunity to purchase a 160 year old barn and farmhouse. It was in terrible shape and it took a lot of blood, sweat and tears to bring it back to life. Realizing that retail stores were taking a different direction, I planned on having special events to sell my goods and those of my vendors. I hold 5 events throughout the year. My store is in the upstairs of the barn and 60 plus vendors fill up the barn and shed. The farmhouse also holds vendors along with my studio and Art Junque which is a craft store. What changes have you seen over the years open? I’ve seen a lot of trends come and go. Vintage and repurposed are popular right now. WISCONSIN COUNTRY LIFE

Hawthorne Hill Farm What do you most Love about your Industry? I love everything about my business! The people,the vendors, building displays, merchandising and creating. What are some of the common myths you come across in your business? I often hear that more and more people are buying online. I see that my customers want to touch and feel the products that they want to buy. What message would you most like to share with people? To my vendors, keep creating and keep trying. To my customers, thank you for shopping. I love to visit with you and to see you having a great time at the events.
What would you like people to know about your business? That it is a work from my heart! I am so blessed to be able to help so many vendors and create a space where we can all come together to do what we love. What is the biggest compliment customers give you? The biggest compliment I receive is “ thank you for having this unique space to come to.” Many of my vendors say to me that it feels like family here. What are you most proud of? I’m proud that I took a chance on an old forgotten barn and built a business on my own. How many employees/Family work with you? I have a few employees during the events, otherwise it is just me.
What are you most grateful for? I am so grateful to all my customers and vendors. Many of them come back time after time. Who/what can you credit your success? My primary focus is to create a place of creativity. A place to collect, create and art. n

A Perfectly Dreamy Dessert
Some desserts deliver sweet taste that satisfies taste buds while others provide a rich flavor that lingers long after you’ve finished that last delicious bite. When you’re pondering which type of dessert you’d like to make at home, it may be difficult to decide which direction to take. Instead of making that nearly impossible decision, keep in mind you can have the best of both worlds with this Chocolate Caramel Peanut Butter Pie. On top of the hard-to-beat flavor, this recipe requires a short list of ingredients and limited time in the kitchen for an easy-to-make treat to satisfy your loved ones’ dessert desires. Just mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar, peanut butter, milk and whipped topping before layering together in a graham cracker crust that adds just enough crunch to the creamy texture. Top with chocolate chips and drizzle with chocolate and caramel syrups before freezing, serving and putting smiles on all the faces in the room. Find more dessert recipes at www.Culinary.net. Chocolate Caramel Peanut Butter Pie 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened 1 cup powdered sugar 1 cup peanut butter 1/2 cup milk 1 container (8 ounces) whipped topping 1 graham cracker crust chocolate chips chocolate syrup caramel syrup In bowl of stand mixer, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add powdered sugar and peanut butter; mix until blended. Add milk; mix until blended. Fold in whipped topping. Pour into crust. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Drizzle with chocolate syrup and caramel syrup. Freeze until set. n
