The Next Chapter of Crop on the Cape 💙

Hi Creative Friends,

I can’t believe we are here celebrating 27 years of Crop on the Cape. Whether you’ve joined us for many, many years or this is one of your first, I think we can all agree this event is something truly special. I count down the days until we’re together, and once the weekend begins, I soak up every bit of the creative energy, laughter, hugs, and inspiration in the room.

As you might have heard, Cape Cod Irish Village has sold this building – including the hotel and event space we use. Over the years, I’ve shared that there really isn’t another function space on Cape Cod large enough to hold all of us the way this one has.

So yes… this brings about a big change.

But here’s what I know for sure:

Crop on the Cape is NOT ending.

In fact, this feels like the perfect moment to thoughtfully re-envision it into the event we truly want it to be moving forward.

I have secured space for March 11–14, 2027 at the Seacrest Resort in North Falmouth – which is actually where Crop on the Cape began back in 1999. 💙

Now, I do need to be honest with you. The ballroom there is not the same size as the one we’ve been in. That means we simply won’t have space to host everyone who is here with us this weekend. There is no way around that – and that part absolutely breaks my heart.

But I am a cup-half-full kind of girl.

Instead of focusing on what we’re losing, I want to focus on what we can build.

This is our opportunity to create something intentional, organized, energizing, and perfectly tailored to what YOU love most about this event.

📝 I Need Your Input

I’ve created an important survey, and I am asking each of you to please take the time to fill it out before March 18.

I’ll be making some big decisions before the end of March, and your feedback will directly shape what this next chapter looks like.

Please don’t skip this – your voice truly matters.

One change you can expect is that the event will be renamed so it better reflects all types of crafters, not just “croppers.” But I promise you this: even with a new name and a new space, the heart of this event – the creativity, the connections, the community – will remain.

This community has never been defined by a ballroom.

It is defined by us.

No matter what, we will always find ways to stay creatively connected. I host the Creative Journey Art Retreat in the fall, offer online classes and events throughout the year, and share inspiration regularly on YouTube and here on my website.

Change can be bittersweet.

But it can also be exciting.

And I truly believe we have the opportunity to shape the next chapter into something incredible.

Thank you for being part of this journey – for 27 years and counting. I can’t wait to hear your thoughts and dream this next version together.

With gratitude,
Jenn 💙
