Enhancing the Adirondack arts and crafts economy has been a guiding principle in the formation and continued development of AdirondackCraft.com.  Putting the Internet to work for craftspeople and producers that are based in the Adirondack North County region benefits local economies that are overly dependent on public sector employment and a short tourism season.  We are proud to partner with the following organizations that are demonstrating their support for small business retention and expansion through their support of AdirondackCraft.com.
