We are pleased to offer fairly traded goods created by artisans from around the world, from beautiful and exotic items for your home décor to delicious and sustainably produced packaged foods. We opened the doors of our retail store the day after Thanksgiving in 2007.

Our café opened in June 2008 to serve up delicious meals featuring fresh and wholesome ingredients. See our reviews in Yelp, or write one of your own!

Coffee is fair trade -- of course -- and freshly roasted locally by Pangaea Organica.

We invite you to stop by for a free taste of one of our many flavors of handmade fudge, cooked up right here in the café with real cream butter. Our chocolate fudge is made with fairly traded cocoa from Theo Chocolate only a couple of miles away.

Hope to see you soon!
