Linda is a local artist whose work is shaped by years of hiking the high desert, watching the light shift across the land, and paying attention to the small, powerful details that make Joshua Tree what it is. That connection shows up most clearly in her Joshua Tree Forever sculptures — three-dimensional pieces that let visitors take home something lasting. Not a souvenir, but a reminder.

There’s something grounding about holding a handmade ceramic piece in your hands — the weight of it, the texture, the quiet evidence that someone took their time. That’s exactly the feeling you get with Stray Ceramics, created by local ceramic artist and teacher Tayler, based right here in Joshua Tree.

Some brands feel like Joshua Tree the moment you see them. Very Very is one of those. Created by long-time 29 Palms locals Dana and Rich, this brand is rooted deeply in the rugged beauty of the high desert — the kind of love that comes from truly knowing a place and choosing to stay.
