Lunar Vibe's newest venture, a mining water table, will be available during the Arts and Oddities Market this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Fulton County Historical Society.

It's been five years since Lunar Vibes opened its small business around the Miami and Fulton County area. Bringing things like homemade candles, crystals, jewelry, decor, and many more items and oddities, owners Saydee Grimm, and partner, Justin Brummett continue to open doors to new products for Lunar Vibes.

After the couple took a trip last year to the Copperhead Creek Gem Mine in Nashville, IN, the idea of bringing a mobile gemstone and crystal mining water table, also known as a "sluice," to northern Indiana began. Just months later, thanks to Brummett's handyman skills, the Lunar Vibes Mining Adventure was brought to life. The couple were finally able to add the mining water table to their vendor events over the summer at events at places like the Miami County Farmers Market.

Since opening the new feature to their vendor booth, Grimm says the Lunar Vibes Mining Adventure has been something that catches the eye of crystal collectors, children, and the curious, bringing their business even more new clients.

Bringing entertainment with new gems and treasures for those seeking new crystals for their collection, activity at the mining water table can also help young children with their fine motor skills, tactile sensory play, grasping, and more.

Now getting an opportunity to bring the Lunar Vibes Mining Adventure to Fulton County, Grimm says they'll have the mining water table out at the event at the Fulton County Historical Society, 37 E. 375 N., near Rochester, this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Grimm says dozens of other eccentric vendors will also be joining her at the event, including businesses that provide a wide range of things from music interpretations, permanent jewelry, tinsel fairy hair, baked goods, freeze dried candy, essential oil, home remedies, concrete decor, and much more. For those hungry event goers needing to grab a bite, the Fulton County Museum will also be serving hot dogs and sloppy joes.
