Three of Pakistan’s most rejoiced cultural commodities, coveted across the globe, would be television dramas, cuisine and textiles or fashion. And in the midst of the growing fashion industry are some celebrated revivalists whose body of work has helped bridge the gap between the era of yore and today’s social media savvy, hypersonic trending age of modernity.

Dutch born Limmen moved to the U.S. as a young man and worked as a landscaper in the Baltimore-Washington area for over 35 years. Searching for a more stress free lifestyle and finding the climate of Midcoast Maine reminiscent of his boyhood village on Holland’s North Sea, Jan (pronounced “Yon”) and his wife, Rosemary, relocated to Tenants Harbor in 2006. Since then they have rebuilt their cottage, built a barn and started three Blue Tulip businesses on their 2.4 acres.
