kreated by kymm, kymm lankford

Hi. My name is Kymm Lankford and my business is KreatedbyKymm. I am the sole creator but occasionally my husband Stu will help me sell my items. I make all kinds of ceramic fun! From child sized tea sets, vases, butter dishes, platters, baby shoes to one of a kind decorative items. I love to do custom work and especially love to personalize my creations.

I can be found on FB at http://facebook.com/kreatedbykymm, Instagram at http://instagram.com/kreatedbykymm, and my online shop is http://madewithlovebykymm.etsy.com.

I am a new vendor at the market and I am so excited to be a part of it! I live in the Star Hill area of Cape Carteret. We moved here when my husband retired from the Marine Corps coming up on 2 years ago. I have five grown children and 8 grandchildren and I also have two younger children who keep me busy everyday! Jacob is 6 and Madison is almost 2. I like to think they are keeping me younger. They are my full time *job* but if and when I have any free time I'm usually covered in clay. Creating is what I love to do.

I am really looking forward to becoming a part of the Salty Air Open Market. I look forward to becoming a part of this community!.

breezes delight, Terri byerly and caitlin byerly

We specialize in Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Vegan, Keto baked goods cakes, cookies, pies and breads. We have been selling at Salty Air Open Market for the last 9 months.

Breezes resides in Jacksonville NC after traveling all the way from Florida with a vision and a dream. We were not always a Gluten Free Bakery. We emerged from being a gluten loving adventure into gluten not being our friend. Our vision and dreams sat on the shelf until one day I realized that my passion was baking. How could I turn this passion into being a rocket scientist with learning how temperamental gluten free baking would be? After many failed attempts, almost ready to throw in the towel. I pushed forward and dragged out all of my beloved old tattered recipes and through trial and error Breezes became Breezes Delight Gluten Free. We pride ourselves on using only the finest ingredients, catering to our wonderful clients and their many food sensitivities allowing us all that one little bite of heaven.

Lil Johnny’s crab shack LLC, heidi vos

Lil Johnny’s Crab Shack is a mobile food truck serving fried and grilled seafood. Some land lover items, chicken and hamburgers, are available too. Lil Johnny’s was created by John Oliveria, a Navy Veteran. He ran the truck for two years before he was transferred from North Carolina. Icehouse Waterfront Restaurant purchased the unit and kept the name in honor of his service to his country. Proudly, we have built on the name.

We are able to accommodate any venue request, with the assistance of our restaurants: Icehouse Waterfront Restaurant (currently being rebuilt) and Boro Restaurant & Bar, both located in historical Downtown Swansboro. We can perform a formal wedding to an oyster roast. We carry a variety of seafood. From flounder to soft shell crabs. Special requests of Beer batter cod for the breweries we frequent. Using their special craft beers. Our specialty on the truck is our Signature Tacos. Flash fried seafood, or grilled blackened mahi with all the toppings are a hit with our fans.

Our General Manager, Heidi Vos, was employed at both restaurants prior to taking over Lil Johnny’s. She worked every aspect of the restaurant business, from management to fry cook. Heidi is a strong leader, capable of working on her own, great with time management and trustworthy. These factors made her the perfect choice for running the truck. Which she has certainly mastered on her own! Anyone looking to book the truck can follow the truck on Facebook or Instagram: @Liljohnnyscrabshack.

CROATAN COFFEE, JASON PEARCE

I started out in search for that fresher cup of coffee. Almost three years later that thought and desire turned into the business slogan " For A Fresher Cup Of Coffee." What's In A Name?: From roasting my first several batches of coffee on an open fire in a cast iron skillet in the backyard, I was an Edison dozens of times until I got it down. I ended up with too much coffee (like there is such a thing?) So as I do with my garden, I started to share it with friends. A couple months later the phone started ringing. “So and so tried the coffee at so and so's house” that was a mutual friend, that I blessed with some of my experimental coffee.

Not knowing the first thing about selling, nor running a business, I searched online to see what other small batch, artisan coffee roasters were pricing their coffee at. “Wow! That's some steep prizes!” I thought to myself. I wanted to roast gourmet coffee, that a blue collar worker like myself could enjoy, and afford. I told my wife Sara, "I think I have something here, what should I call it?" She replied, "How about Croatan Coffee?" With the Croatan National Forest surrounding 3/4 of my property where the Genesis happened, armed with a sharpie marker, on a brown paper bag filled with hand roasted coffee, the first bag was sold.

August 2019 will be our 3rd year as a small business. With 15 stores we are providing to Piggly Wiggly, IGA, as well as several "mom & pop" stores in addition to online sales. We have filled orders to 23 states and to Israel! Tourism has brought this business success as well as local support, connecting with the name Croatan, and the label stating "Proudly Roasted In Maysville, NC” We roast on a fluid bed roaster, (clean heat). The business has extended to our Nitro Cold Brew Coffee Cart, that we set up at events and festivals, and our little kiosk coffee shop located in the General Store at The Salty Air Open Market in Cedar Point. We are truly thankful, and humbled by the growth, support, and customer base we have developed. With so many other options to choose from, we have no words to describe the feeling but humble and thankful. - Jason Pearce: Owner, Roast Master croatancoffee.com Croatan Coffee Roasting Company Inc. a veteran owned business.

WHITE OAK RIVER SEAFOOD, PATRICK FINN AND ELAINE DAVIS

Patrick Finn started life as the son of a Marine Corps officer. His father Robert came from a farming family in Illinois. While serving in the Marine Corps, Robert was stationed at Camp Lejeune in Onslow County. Robert learned about commercial fishing and used gill nets and shrimp trawls to bring in additional income to support his family of six. Pat was about 9 when he started fishing with his father. Robert taught Pat everything he knew about fishing. It is in his blood and he loves the life! Pat has now been fishing for over 50 years. He gillnets for fish, trawls for shrimp, rakes for clams, and uses crab pots to catch fresh crabs. Throughout his life he has been a deck hand, a captain, as well as a lone fisherman. Pat has witnessed tremendous changes in the commercial fishing regulations. With the growing mountain of regulations, he has seen it become increasingly difficult to earn a living via commercial fishing. In learning all that he knows, Pat realized he needed to change his methods. In addition to selling at the fish houses, he obtained a dealer’s license and started selling his catch to the public. In 2012 he set up the stand that he now calls White Oak River Seafood. It is located at the Salty Air Open Market in Cedar Point. His business has grown from a humble pop-up tent to multiple metal buildings. In addition to the fresh NC seafood he sells, Pat recently expanded his business to include fresh fruit and vegetables. He calls his business a family affair. Pat’s long-term partner Elaine Davis, their children, as well as their friends have been instrumental in supporting him in his endeavor.
