Step in the door at Urban Farmhouse on Wilson Blvd. and you can fill up several stockings with red and white polka dot holiday tea towels, hand-painted canvas Santa Claus figures, a variety of ornaments displayed on a white wire tree or oversize key rings in vegan, silicone or the luxury leather ring in a pouch. Julie Tate, who co-owns the store with her mother, says, "A good item to fit in a stocking is the milk bottle candle from a farmer north of Baltimore." At this time of year, the most popular choices are Mulled Berry Wine, 1768 Balsam Fir and The Hearth.
