Exciting news! The social side of ITVK is changing. Because we want to support companies that are working to create healthy environments for everyone, we are taking an indefinite break from traditonal social media. In its place, we made something new.
Since we love taking photographs and sharing interesting information from history, by creating our own custom social feed here in the shop, we still have the opportunity to highlight all the excitement and joy found in the kitchens of past decades and centuries.
Visit the About page here in the shop to see our new gallery where you'll find similar content to what we have posted online in the past. Recipes, garden updates, history highlights, shop features, and 1750 House renovation projects will still be featured, along with some ITVK community contributions and sometimes a video or two. It's a new way to celebrate old history. We hope you'll find it to be equally engaging.
