Half Moon Button Club and the Verd Mont Button Club of Vermont Share an Engaging Day

On Saturday, July 20, 2024, Vermont's Verd Mont Button Club hosted Half Moon Button Club members in Fair Haven, Vermont. The day's gathering included button sales, plenty of project cards to peruse, a delicious potluck lunch, door prize giveaways, and a fascinating talk by Lisa Wernhoff about the buttons of Vermont. Several photos are below, others will be in the Gallery section soon.
