In the old Caledonia Public Library that’s now Thistle & Brush Village Salon!

📚✨ COMMUNITY KINDNESS AT ITS BEST ✨📚

A huge THANK YOU to the amazing Stormy Cushing for partnering with us to help bring the Thistle & Brush Free Little Library to life! What started as a simple idea has quickly turned into something truly special for our little village community. Our old Caledonia Public Library once again has books on its shelves! 💚

We also want to send out a giant thank you to the numerous people who donated books to help fill our shelves. Seeing this little library already bringing smiles to faces has been incredible!

A very special thank you to the Marion Public Library for generously donating kids books and helping us create a space where reading, sharing, and community can continue to grow together. 📖

The idea is simple:
📚 Take a book
📚 Leave a book
📚 Share the joy of reading

Feel free to stop in, browse the shelves, and take a peek during our open hours:
🕘 Wednesday & Thursday: 9am–7pm
🕘 Friday & Saturday: 9am–3pm

Small towns do big things when people come together, and this is an awesome example of that. 💚

Hey everyone!! 💐

We just wanted to take a moment to share a little update on our very first Mother’s Day event—and what an amazing day it turned out to be!

The Caledonia Memorial Global Methodist Church hosted a wonderful craft show in the old IGA building at the corner of Marion St. & Main St., filled with so many incredible vendors (we definitely didn’t leave with just one item 😉).

That event gave us the perfect opportunity to build onto something special—offering free kids’ crafts so they could create Mother’s Day gifts straight from the heart.

Despite the cold, this community SHOWED UP ❤️

We had:
🐾 Marion Area Humane Society with some adorable pups
📚 Marion Public Library bringing the book van and free books
🎈 Cooper & Co Balloons bringing the fun

And this event truly came together because of so many generous hearts:

✨ American Legion Post 401 for funding the crafts and balloons
🌸 Landes Fresh Produce for the beautiful flowers
🍕 Big G’s Dugout Pizza for the potting soil and a warm space out of the wind
💅 Thistle & Brush Village Salon for supplies, space, and relaxing hand & arm massages (with Gracelynn donating her time!)

Plus so many wonderful individuals who stepped up in big ways—helping with crafts, photos, flowers, raffle items, flyers, and more. You know who you are, and we are so grateful for each of you 💛

We don’t share these names for recognition—but to show what can happen when a community comes together.

Was it the biggest turnout? No.
But the smiles on the kids’ faces as they made gifts for their moms and Mimi’s? That made it all worth it. 💐

This is what Caledonia is all about. And we’re just getting started. ❤️
