Bio: Salli Squitieri is the creator of "The Frog and The Hummingbird Co." that began as a home-based business producing nostalgic and traditional herbal products. Which began in the 70’s as Gypsy Crafts producing Traditional Folk Toys, Natural Fiber Jewelry and Herbal products. Salli traveled nationally to festivals and special events as a vendor, speaker, workshop leader, events producer and also provided nature walks. Later, in the early 90’s Gypsy Crafts evolved into the Calabash a Caribbean Themed Gallery and outdoor market place, mini cultural center and the Roots shop featuring herbal products, plant-based products and health and beauty products. In the latter 90’s The Calabash & Roots shop evolved into the Frog and The Hummingbird Co bringing a touch of the tropics and maintaining its integrity of natural products. Her involvements during the early 2000’s also included a custom-built display with a local co-op, the "Artist's Market Place" --featuring her herbal products. Word quickly spread of the uniqueness of her display, wares and educational presentations and demonstrations and she was then recommended to travelers by the cruise ship directors. Additionally, she presented an eye-catching display at the Sunset Celebration at Mallory Square and was commended by the Sunset Celebration Jury Committee. Salli soon found the perfect location for her 'business to be' and she rented a charming historical building in a remote community in the Florida Panhandle. The 103-year-old wood building abundant with stories was one of the original buildings of the community and had a warm rich acoustical sound, perfect for her music and art forum and café. In July 2008 she opened this magical business that was an oasis in this tiny remote community. The Frog and The Hummingbird Co & Butterfield's Roadhouse became a destination point and soon drew people from near and far.
