Fuchsia Shoes, owned by Afshan Abbas, is a direct to consumer brand of artisanal products, selling beautifully handcrafted ballet flats, cashmere scarves and accessories. They work with small scale industry artisans in developing countries who lack access to global markets. By making high quality shoes for Fuchsia, artisans make a livable wage—about three times more what they would normally make. Fuchsia Shoes sources all premium quality raw material locally and uses sustainable materials like recycled denim, jute and organic cotton.
Village Greens Golf Course, an executive 18-hole course, has been located in Port Orchard for over 50 years. The course has seen many owners throughout its longevity and eventually ran its course closing in early 2019. Joseph Perdue, who got his start in golf at Village Greens, stepped in to save the course for future generations. Juniors, seniors and families of all ages, thanks to Joseph Perdue, can still enjoy a round of golf at Village Greens for many years to come.
