Community
Fletcher is a welcoming Western North Carolina town set between mountain views, farms, and growing neighborhoods. Bill Moore Community Park, Cane Creek, local equestrian traditions, and easy access to the Blue Ridge make it a comfortable home and a lovely place for visitors to slow down.
The collaboration
My brother, sister-in-law, and nieces live in Fletcher. While visiting them, our family enjoyed exploring the area, spending time at the park, hiking, and taking walks together. Those family experiences inspired the idea of making a mug for this unique town.
I reached out to Black Bear Coffee to see whether they would be interested in collaborating, and the project came together with owner Mark Pavao and his team. I am so thankful for the partnership and for the opportunity to celebrate a place connected to people we love.
