Beautiful fair trade store, lovely staff and volunteers, a good cause. Relatively expensive, but it comes with quality and the knowledge that you are supporting artisans in developing nations. Update: I've been going to this store for a decade now and have been volunteering off and on for several years. I love the stock that is carried here-- it is so diverse in the types of products, the countries of origin, and the causes they support. My favorite things I've bought from here over the years are: the star lanterns, friendship bracelets, a quilling card for my mom that we framed, their purple tea, beaded work, and their kitchen linens.
Love this store so much! Everything is so beautiful, well-made, and in support of a great mission. 10/10 would recommend.
LOVED this store. Bought beautiful, unique items for a wedding gift and some fun things for me, too. Deb is a gem!
Such a cute little shop. A perfect place to shop for presents that are meaningful.
I've been following this store on facebook and Instagram for ages! I live about 45mins away so there's never a convenient time or day for me to stop by. They had made a post on Facebook and I had instantly fallen in love with a kitty planter from Bangladesh, I needed it! I finally had the chance to go today and boy was I impressed. It's such an incredible store supporting communities all over the world, with super awesome employees. There are several things I also wanted but I will have to venture back soon. If you're looking for a unique and meaningful gift by all means check this place out! I can't wait to go back.
