Just in! 🌿📚 These beautiful layered nature-themed books have arrived!

Reading about nature with our kiddos helps them build a love and appreciation for the Earth, planting the seeds to become thoughtful stewards of our planet as they grow.

Books like these are just also a gentle reminder of how precious this little rock we call home truly is. 💚🌎

Affordably priced at $13.99

It's been awhile since I've posted. Between summer life, gardening and reordering it's been A LOT. I wouldn't change a thing besides a few more hours everyday. Restocking some items I've been out of today and adding some new books and toys.

P.S. the new books are amazing, I'll post some pictures later!

I'll admit, I've gone back and forth about celebrating this year. The current political climate has left a lot of people feeling discouraged and divided. Those feelings are real.

But I've decided I'm not going to let "the man" steal my joy.

This year marks our nation's 250th anniversary. Is our country perfect? Absolutely not. We still have work to do. But I also think it's okay to celebrate the freedoms we have, the progress we've made, and the people we share this country with.

So, this weekend I'm choosing to celebrate and honor this milestone. I will be up north at the lake with my in-laws, participating in the boat parade and taking a bit of time to recharge.

That being said we will be closed July 4 and 5.

Happy Independence Day! ❤️🤍💙

Two years ago, I nervously accepted my very first 30-gallon barrel of laundry detergent. 🛢️

Yesterday, a second 55-gallon drum of laundry detergent arrived—along with a 30-gallon drum of hand soap and many 5 gallon buckets and cardboys. 125 gallons of product in total!

What a difference two years makes.

Deciding to order that first barrel felt like a leap of faith. Today, I regularly refill barrels of laundry detergent, dish soap, and hand soap, and I don't feel nervous anymore. The numbers speak for themselves, and every refill reminds me that this really is the right thing to do.

Watching our community embrace refills has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey. Every container refilled is one less single-use bottle headed to the landfill, and that's something we can all be proud of.

Thank you for believing in this little refill store and for proving, one refill at a time, that small changes really do add up. 💚

This little sticker welcomed me today when I opened up.

I'm a bit confused by the message but I guess this means I'm getting under someone's skin. Sorry, not sorry.

I appreciate the right of personal expression although don't appreciate the litter of the sticker backing left on the sidewalk.

Toothpaste Tabs back in stock.

This year has brought many new customers and business has grown. I'm learning how to keep up with a new level of reordering and I've missed the mark on a few items. Some items are selling faster than expected and I appreciate how understanding you've been as I navigate growth.

As always thank you for your continued love patience and support of my business and mission. I couldn't do this without it.

Oh, also toilet paper is back in stock.

It’s been over a week since the anniversary celebration—congratulations to all of our raffle prize winners (listed below this message)! Thanks to my business buddies Amoré Antiques Avant Garden Bookstore Herban Wolf Deli Metta Coffee Random Hippie for providing such wonderful prizes!

I had planned to announce the winners that evening, but I was having such a wonderful time celebrating I got caught up in the moment. When I think back to that evening my heart is still full.

Note to self: hosting a big celebration and then immediately heading out on a week-long vacation may have been a bigger bite than I could chew. 😆

USA is celebrating 250 years on Independence Day this year.

The city of Anoka is honoring this milestone with a celebration next week with many local businesses decorated in red, white &, blue.

I'm so excited about my window with red white and blue window and quotes from the declaration signed on July, 4 1776! 🇺🇸

Thanks to Cati, she is doing great work!
