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.

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.

I LOVE this store! The first time I went in I knew I would be back for all my Christmas gifts, and for shopping for myself! They have a rewards program where you get a check mark for each country from which you buy a product. Once you have 5 different countries represented (which is very easy to do with their vast selection of products) you get 20% off one item (they apply it to the most expensive item if you're buying multiple). Whoever is in charge of curating the actual products does an amazing job. The products are truly works of art. Lots of options for all the adults and kids in your life! Highly recommend!
