The Northern Tioga Chamber is hosting a ribbon-cutting on Saturday, Feb. 8 at 10 a.m. for Farmhouse Scents & Designs, located at 198 Jewett Hill Rd. in Berkshire, N.Y. The community is welcome to attend.
Sarah Davis, owner of Farmhouse Scents & Designs, recently relocated her small business to her home on Jewett Hill Road. Conveniently housed just one mile from Rte. 38, the business is just up the road from the Berkshire Free Library and the Community Hall.
Previously, Davis had rented a space in Lisle, and later in Richford.

Sarah decided that she could still offer products that customers enjoy in her home space, while continuing to be inspired and creative, and allowing her to be attentive to her family at the same time.
At one time, Davis had included a thrift section inside her store space, but today, she is focused more on a boutique-type atmosphere.
Sarah remarked, “I had added a thrifty shop for the community, but I have since handed that off to another business owner.”
What began as a hobby back in 2023 has today blossomed into a growing start-up. After working elsewhere for some time, Sarah explained that self-employment has helped tremendously with stay-at-home family needs and is focused now on running a smaller-size store out of her home, as well as online sales.
