We currently have a half-price sale on clothing store wide to make room for fall and winter clothing.
We would like to say thankyou to everyone who made First Saturday such a success. We saw many returning faces and met some new friends as well.
New products include organic herbal teas and seasoning mixes from Mind’s Eye HerbFarm. New insence and essential oils from Nag Champa, and more of the very popular hats from Ganesh Himal.
Be sure to attend the poetry SLAP on thursday, Sept 23, at 7:00.
