"There are moments when I’m in the back of the store working on a new line, and I can hear Kaitlin and Harrison in the front of the shop. Even though I can’t see them I know that we are there together. We share the same goals and the same dream."

"We were lucky to have discovered our creativity and passion together, but to experience loss in the same exact way strengthened our bond. We were able to support each other in a way that forced us to grow and build each other up."

"I’m proud of what we represent in our community. I love to look around on Saturdays when we are busy and see customers of all different ages, races, and backgrounds enjoying the shop. There’s something about nature that brings people together, and we have the opportunity to be a welcoming presence."
