Batch Production and the Wndsn Farmer's Market
2024-09-01
UPDATE: After a year of monthly store openings and collecting and comparing efforts and data, I am changing two things effective immediately.
- I will keep the store open perpetually.
- I will continue the batch production with focused availability of specific items.
This means you can once again shop anytime you like, whereever and whenever you are. Fulfilment will happen once per week. This also means that I can provide more informative newsletters, instead of (ab)using the email list to constantly announce opening and closing times. Apologies for this unintended effect.
Thank you for taking part in this experiment, more insights to follow.

I've always strived to provide you with the highest quality products and the most personalized service. Today, I want to share a shift in production and sales strategy.
As a one-man operation, with some family help and some temporary support, I cherish every moment of this journey, creating handcrafted products that reflect my passion and dedication. In the quest to continually enhance offerings and to maintain the highest standards of quality, I've decided to make a significant change in production approach.
Starting in September 2023, I will be transitioning to a batch production model with limited product availability opportunities. This shift will allow me to concentrate my efforts on development and instruction, ensuring that I can deliver even more exceptional products and experiences to the customer.
I don't do mass-production and continuous availability to the general public is not required for the products I create.
What Does Batch Production Mean?
- Quality instead of Quantity: By focusing on small batches, I can dedicate more time and attention to crafting each product with the utmost care and precision.
- Unique Offerings: Limited product availability opportunities will increase exclusivity for the customer. You'll have the chance to enjoy unique and specialized items that are not mass-produced available during pre-announced shopping windows.
- Personalized Service: I will have more time to engage with you, providing tailored advice, recommendations, and support for your individual needs.
- Instruction and Development: I will have the opportunity to invest more time in refining product offerings and creating comprehensive instructional materials to enhance your overall experience with my products.
What to Expect
Periodic Shopping Opportunities: The online shop will open only during predetermined times.- Limited Product Releases: I will periodically release a limited quantity of products, similar maybe to the charm of a regular farmers' market.
- Increased Engagement: I am excited to interact with you more frequently, sharing insights, tips, and ideas to make the most of your Wndsn experience.
- Feedback and Collaboration: I welcome your thoughts and ideas as I continue to evolve the offerings.
I believe that this shift will ultimately benefit all of us by allowing me to deliver products and experiences that are truly exceptional. I look forward to sharing this journey with you and continuing to serve you with excellence.
