This year marks a special milestone — 10 years with one of our very first vendors, whose journey is as meaningful as it is inspiring.

What began as a passionate hobby has grown into a thriving retirement business, created not just to earn, but to stay active, curious, and connected. Turning personal interests into something that brings joy to others is no small feat — and it’s exactly the kind of story that defines the heart of our vendor community.

Today, this vendor proudly operates two distinct businesses, each reflecting years of knowledge, care, and enthusiasm:

Shoebox Trains

trains, tracks & accessories

A haven for collectors and enthusiasts alike, Shoebox Trains celebrates the nostalgia and craftsmanship of model trains, offering pieces that spark memories and ignite imaginations.

Greg’s Antiques and Collectables

buy • sell • trade

With an eye for history and timeless charm, Greg’s Antiques and Collectables brings thoughtfully curated finds that tell stories from another era — each piece selected with intrigueing interest, to discover its history and share it.

As one of our first-ever vendors, this long-standing presence has helped shape the market into what it is today. Their dedication, consistency, and love for what they do remind us that small beginnings — fueled by passion — can turn into something lasting and meaningful.

Here’s to 10 years, two businesses, and a retirement built not on slowing down, but on doing what you love.
