Eczesoothe When Tierra Oliver’s daughter had eczema, a skin condition on her face, Oliver did not want to use a commercial steroid-laden treatment. She was a family nurse practitioner – and felt there had to be a more natural, organic alternative.⁣ ⁣ However, she couldn’t immediately find one.

Sewing was Shelli Scott’s passion from an early age. She started when she was 7, living in Cleveland when an elderly neighbor across the street would watch her after school.

It was an early start for the woman who now has her own clothing line and is working out of The Accelerator space in Newburgh. A graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology, Scott freelanced as a seamstress for years to polish her craft, working in places like Read More

Of course, since the pandemic hit, many of Newburgh’s manufacturing and other businesses —  as in the rest of the Hudson Valley and elsewhere —  have been in limbo, with some shut down and others reducing output. The Read More
