Mary is a member of NAME's Academy of Honor, and an Artisan member of the International Guild of Miniature Artisans. She also served as a member of the I.G.M.A. board for six years, and is active in both CIMTA, the Cottage Industry Miniaturist Trade Association, and MIAA, the Miniatures Industry Association of America, since part of her business is wholesale.
Several years ago, she acquired and produced Hudson River Miniatures as a perfect compliment to her food line. Groceries - cans, bottles, jars, boxes, baby products, pet products, etc. shopping bags, and much more, are all part of he line. HRM products are available to shops at wholesale prices.
Mary's workspace is, "cozy as can be," she says. "I can sit right here and do my thing." A small toaster oven, supplies and the tools of her trade are all close at hand. She is surrounded by food, and looking over her shoulder, you realize it's no secret that Mary Eccher truly does love to cook.
