Mama Dee Day Merchant Vendor DROP!🙏💛🇼🇸🇦🇸🇹🇴

One of our favorite parts of Mama Dee Day is seeing our community come together — and that includes supporting the small businesses, creatives, and families who bring their talents and products to share with us. 💛🌺

This year’s Merchant Vendors are bringing a little bit of everything — jewelry and accessories, Polynesian sportswear, self-care products, scents and candles, handmade Tongan traditional attire, health & wellness items, toys, gifts and more.

Mama Dee believed in showing up for our people, and this marketplace is another way we can do exactly that. Come walk the booths, meet the people behind the businesses, find something you love, and put your dollars back into our community.
