our ONE YEAR anniversary

WHAT A YEAR. As we come up on our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY as a brick + mortar shop, you better believe it — we are going to celebrate! Whatever your part in making this happen, first — thank you. Every time you come by for a cup of tea, to shop, or even share about us with a friend, it is felt. It is an absolute honor to get to champion and support so many beautiful stories all around the world with you.

We are big believers in celebrations going all week, so beginning Monday, we have a few fun things going on — just for you, our amazing community:

1, all weekend, when you spend $100 with us, you get 20% off. Use ANNIVERSARYWEEK to redeem online. And, EVERY PURCHASE on Saturday and Sunday gets to pick a little gift from us from the basket (we will have all sorts of deals and extras for you)!

2, GIVE WITH US. Our story as made began with being exposed to how fair employment can play an integral role in helping to preserve families in Haiti, so as we celebrate one year as a shop — we invite you to give with us in two ways:

• Locally — we are collecting diapers for our friends at Echo Family Care Partners as they serve families right here on the peninsula who may be in a vulnerable place and need a little support. For every package of diapers, you get an entry to our Anniversary Giveaway (see #4)!
• Internationally — you can round up your bill all week to give to the start of a sewing program in partnership with Wings of Refuge, Inc. in Haiti. This sewing program will provide meaningful work to one or two of the young women Wings of Refuge has the privilege of partnering with.

3, our ANNIVERSARY PARTY is happening on Saturday, March 23rd from 11am-4pm! On the menu: a few of our favorite cookies made by our Shop Mom (if you know our Shop Mom’s baking, you know they’ll be good), punch, and a fruit charcuterie board. We’ll have a new coloring sheet for the kids, a bouquet making station, giving opportunities (see #2), a gift with every purchase (see #1) and our SPRING collection will be at the shop beginning Saturday!

4, GIVEAWAY! We are giving away a People Matter More tote bag full of all the good stuff (over $100 in value!) — check everything out below. You can enter the giveaway a few different ways: 1, make a purchase during our anniversary week. 2, share about us on social media (be sure to tag us in it, so we know to count it!). 3, bring diapers to support the work of Echo Family Care Partners.
