It is with pleasure that we observe the creation of new businesses in Wellfleet.

This year, over the winter, we watched the complete renovation of a building on Main Street, opposite Prudential Cape Shores Real Estate. A few months ago, the final paint job really made the Newcomb Hollow Shop stand out, and, when planters full of purple petunias materialized, I decided it was really time for a visit.

Then, this week, a hat stand appeared out front. I love hats, so off I went with my camera. The shop belongs to Judith Newcomb Stiles, who is responsible for the pottery, and Sadie Green, a jeweler. There are lots of fun gadgets, as well as pottery and jewelry, a nice selection of watches and cards, and much more. The shop is bright and full of good cheer. I have no doubt that the Newcomb Hollow Shop will please tourists and natives alike. Welcome, Judith and Sadie!
