Unique Shopping in Nescopeck at Farmhouse 52
When cousins Jill Shupp and Bill Evans decided to combine their passions, they created a truly unique experience, Farmhouse 52. Jill’s passion is distinctive fashion and Bill’s is wood crafting. After attending a craft show together, they decided to open a permanent location. The unqiue Gift Boutique and Craft Shop opened in April 2021, in their grandmother June Croop’s house. They remodeled the house that was built in the early part of the 20th century by adding an extension and even used parts of a barn that dates back to 1893. Farmhouse 52 has 6 rooms that deliver a quality shopping experience. There are fashions for all ages, wood working, which can also be customized, home décor, food, soaps, candles and pet gifts. If you are looking for a gift for your special someone for Valentine's Day or for any special occassion, be sure to take the time to visit. You are sure to find something unique! Farmhouse 52 is located at 760 Switze Road in Nescopeck. Shop hours are Thursdays 11am to 6pm and Friday thru Sunday 11am to 4pm. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for more information.
Who is Cupid?
The Unofficial Mascot of Valentine's Day The mention of Cupid typically conjures up images of a cherubic infant wielding a bow and arrow, but this wasn’t always the case. Long before the Romans adopted and renamed him—and way before his association with Valentine's Day—Cupid was known to the Greeks as Eros, the handsome god of love. Cupid and Greek Mythology One of the first authors to mention Eros (circa 700 B.C.) was Hesiod, who described him in “Theogony” as one of the primeval cosmogonic deities born of the world egg. But later accounts of the lineage of Eros vary, describing him as the son of Nyx and Erebus; or Aphrodite and Ares; or Iris and Zephyrus; or even Aphrodite and Zeus—who would have been both his father and grandfather. Armed with a bow and a quiver filled with both golden arrows to arouse desire and leaden arrows to ignite aversion, Eros struck at the hearts of gods and mortals and played with their emotions. In one story from ancient Greek mythology, which was later retold by Roman authors, Cupid (Eros) shot a golden arrow at Apollo, who fell madly in love with the nymph Daphne, but then launched a leaden arrow at Daphne so she would be Incense & Burners repulsed by him.
